Selective detection of epimeric pentose saccharides at physiological pH using a fluorescent receptor

Matthew Gibson, Elizabeth Fullam, Joao Pedro De Almeida Neres

Epimerisation between ribofuranose and arabinofuranose sugars is crucial in several biosynthetic pathways, but is typically challenging to monitor. Here, we have screened for fluorescent boronic acids that can be used as molecular probes for the specific d ...

Structure and function of the transketolase from Mycobacterium tuberculosis and comparison with the human enzyme

Stewart Cole, Florence Pojer, Elizabeth Fullam

The transketolase (TKT) enzyme in Mycobacterium tuberculosis represents a novel drug target for tuberculosis treatment and has low homology with the orthologous human enzyme. Here, we report on the structural and kinetic characterization of the transketola ...

Structural Basis for Benzothiazinone-Mediated Killing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Paul Joseph Dyson, John McKinney, Stewart Cole, Neeraj Dhar, Florence Pojer, Elizabeth Fullam, Joao Pedro De Almeida Neres

The benzothiazinone BTZ043 is a tuberculosis drug candidate with nanomolar whole-cell activity. BTZ043 targets the DprE1 catalytic component of the essential enzyme decaprenylphosphoryl-beta-D-ribofuranose-2'-epimerase, thus blocking biosynthesis of arabin ...

Benzothiazinones kill Mycobacterium tuberculosis by blocking arabinan synthesis

John McKinney, Stewart Cole, Neeraj Dhar, Claudia Sala, Elizabeth Fullam, Giulia Manina

New drugs are required to counter the tuberculosis (TB) pandemic. Here, we describe the synthesis and characterization of 1,3-benzothiazin-4-ones (BTZs), a new class of antimycobacterial agents that kill Mycobacterium tuberculosis in vitro, ex vivo, and in ...
