Discovery and Characterization of the Antimetabolite Action of Thioacetamide-Linked 1,2,3-Triazoles as Disruptors of Cysteine Biosynthesis in Gram-Negative Bacteria

Abstract excerpt

Increasing rates of drug-resistant Gram-negative (GN) infections, combined with a lack of new GN-effective antibiotic classes, are driving the need for the discovery of new agents. Bacterial metabolism represents an underutilized mechanism of action in current antimicrobial therapies. Therefore, we sought to identify novel antimetabolites that disrupt key metabolic pathways and explore the specific impacts of...
