    Diversity-Oriented Synthesis for Novel, Selective and Drug-like Inhibitors for a Phosphatase from Mycobacterium Tuberculosis
    (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2014-10) He, Rongjun; Bai, Yunpeng; Yu, Zhi-Hong; Wu, Li; Gunawan, Andrea Michelle; Zhang, Zhong-Yin; Department of Biochemistry & Molecular Biology, IU School of Medicine
    Mycobacterium protein tyrosine phosphatase B (mPTPB) is a potential drug target of Tuberculosis (TB). Small molecule inhibitors of mPTPB could be a treatment to overcome emerging TB drug resistance. Using a Diversity-Oriented Synthesis (DOS) strategy, we successfully developed a salicylic acid based and drug-like mPTPB inhibitor with an IC50 of 2 μM and >20-fold specificity over many human PTPs, making it an excellent lead molecule for anti-TB drug discovery. In addition, DOS generated bicyclic salicylic acids are also promising starting points for acquiring inhibitors targeting other PTPs.
