Mutations in the Esx-3 secretion system confer resistance to multiple chemical scaffolds in Mycobacterium tuberculosis
We determined the mechanism of resistance to seven chemical series with potent activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Resistant mutants were isolated against the aminothiazoles, phenylhydrazones...

What's your favourite microorganism? 🦠🧪 Is it bad to say mine is Mycobacterium tuberculosis? I'm still trying to eradicate it from humans.
Happy International Microorganism Day! 🎉
Today, we are celebrating the tiny powerhouses that have a massive impact on our world. From the bacteria in our gut to the fungi that give us antibiotics, these incredible organisms are essential to life.
Let's make some noise for the microscopic!

Structure–Activity Relationship Study of Benzamides as Mycobacterium tuberculosis QcrB Inhibitors
We previously identified a morpholinobenzamide series with potent activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. We conducted structure–activity relationship studies focusing on removing the metabolically labile morpholine group while retaining antibacterial activity. We identified potent benzamides 16 (IC90 = 0.13 μM) and 22f (IC90 = 0.09 μM) with a thiophene and methyl substituents replacing the morpholine at the C-5 position. These analogs had high selectivity (selectivity index = 300 and 278, respectively) and low cytotoxicity (HepG2 CC50 of 39 and 25 μM, respectively). Compound 16 demonstrated a good metabolic stability in human liver microsomes.
