Rational design and synthesis of novel phenyltriazole derivatives targeting MRSA cell wall biosynthesis

Abstract excerpt

). Compound 29 emerged as the most promising candidate, showing rapid bactericidal activity and superior performance over vancomycin in time-kill assays. It exhibited selective toxicity against bacterial cells, minimal cytotoxicity in human cell lines and low hemolytic activity. Mechanistic studies showed that compound 29 targets the bacterial cell wall by binding to penicillin-binding protein 2a (PBP2a),...
