Martinez-Grau M, Gonzalez Valcarcel I, Early J, Gessner R, Soares de Melo C, de la Nava E, et al.
Bioorg Med Chem Lett . 2018 Apr; 28(10):1758-1764. PMID: 29680666
Despite increased research efforts to find new treatments for tuberculosis in recent decades, compounds with novel mechanisms of action are still required. We previously identified a series of novel aryl-oxadiazoles...

Murugesan D, Ray P, Bayliss T, Prosser G, Harrison J, Green K, et al.
ACS Infect Dis . 2018 Mar; 4(6):954-969. PMID: 29522317
Mycobacterium tuberculosis ( MTb) possesses two nonproton pumping type II NADH dehydrogenase (NDH-2) enzymes which are predicted to be jointly essential for respiratory metabolism. Furthermore, the structure of a closely...

Soares de Melo C, Candice S, Feng T, van der Westhuyzen R, Gessner R, Street L, et al.
Bioorg Med Chem . 2015 Nov; 23(22):7240-50. PMID: 26522089
Whole-cell high-throughput screening of a diverse SoftFocus library against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) generated a novel aminopyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine hit series. The synthesis and structure activity relationship studies identified compounds with potent antimycobacterial...
