Campylobacter and Helicobacter species express a 6-amino-6-deoxyfutalosine N-ribosylhydrolase (HpMTAN) proposed to function in menaquinone synthesis. BuT-DADMe-ImmA is a 36 pM transition state analogue of HpMTAN, and the crystal structure of the enzyme-inhibitor complex reveals the mechanism of inhibition. BuT-DADMe-ImmA has a MIC(90) value of <8 ng/mL for Helicobacter pylori growth but does not cause growth arrest in other common clinical pathogens, thus demonstrating potential as an H. pylori-specific antibiotic.
弯曲菌属和幽门螺杆菌属表达 6-氨基-6-脱氧呋咱核苷 N-核糖基水解酶(HpMTAN),该酶被认为参与了menaquinone 的合成。BuT-DADMe-ImmA 是 HpMTAN 的 36 pM 过渡态类似物,酶-抑制剂复合物的晶体结构揭示了抑制机制。BuT-DADMe-ImmA 对幽门螺杆菌生长的 MIC(90)值<8ng/mL,但不会引起其他常见临床病原体的生长停滞,因此具有作为幽门螺杆菌特异性抗生素的潜力。
