Bioorg Med Chem Lett . 2019 Nov; 30(2):126792. PMID: 31757668
Inosine-5'-monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH) is a rate-limiting enzyme involved in nucleotide biosynthesis. Because of its critical role in purine biosynthesis, IMPDH is a drug design target for immunosuppressive, anticancer, antiviral and...

ACS Infect Dis . 2016 Oct; 3(1):5-17. PMID: 27726334
VCC234718, a molecule with growth inhibitory activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), was identified by phenotypic screening of a 15344-compound library. Sequencing of a VCC234718-resistant mutant identified a Y487C substitution in...

ACS Infect Dis . 2016 Oct; 3(1):18-33. PMID: 27704782
A potent, noncytotoxic indazole sulfonamide was identified by high-throughput screening of >100,000 synthetic compounds for activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). This noncytotoxic compound did not directly inhibit cell wall biogenesis...
