Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) drug resistance poses an alarming threat to global tuberculosis control. We previously reported that C10, a ring-fused thiazolo-2-pyridone, inhibits Mtb respiration, blocks biofilm formation, and restores the activity of the antibiotic isoniazid (INH) in INH-resistant Mtb isolates. This discovery revealed a new strategy to address INH resistance. Expanding upon this strategy, we identified C10 analogues with improved potency and drug-like properties. By exploring three heterocycle spacers (oxadiazole, 1,2,3-triazole, and isoxazole) on the ring-fused thiazolo-2-pyridone scaffold, we identified two novel isoxazoles, 17h and 17j. 17h and 17j inhibited Mtb respiration and biofilm formation more potently with a broader therapeutic window, were better potentiators of INH-mediated inhibition of an INH-resistant Mtb mutant, and more effectively inhibited intracellular Mtb replication than C10. The (-)17j enantiomer showed further enhanced activity compared to its enantiomer and the 17j racemic mixture. Our potent second-generation C10 analogues offer promise for therapeutic development against drug-resistant Mtb.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on May 5,2022.Tool that predicts interactions between transcription factors and their regulated genes from binding motifs. Understanding vertebrate development requires unraveling the cis-regulatory architecture of gene regulation. PRISM provides accurate genome-wide computational predictions of transcription factor binding sites for the human and mouse genomes, and integrates the predictions with GREAT to provide functional biological context. Together, accurate computational binding site prediction and GREAT produce for each transcription factor: 1. putative binding sites, 2. putative target genes, 3. putative biological roles of the transcription factor, and 4. putative cis-regulatory elements through which the factor regulates each target in each functional role.
