  • PubMed Abstract: 

    In an attempt to identify novel inhibitors of NAD(+)-dependent DNA ligase (LigA) that are not affected by a known resistance mutation in the adenosine binding pocket, a detailed analysis of the binding sites of a variety of bacterial ligases was performed. This analysis revealed several similarities to the adenine binding region of kinases, which enabled a virtual screen of known kinase inhibitors. From this screen, a thienopyridine scaffold was identified that was shown to inhibit bacterial ligase. Further characterization through structure and enzymology revealed the compound was not affected by a previously disclosed resistance mutation in Streptococcus pneumoniae LigA, Leu75Phe. A subsequent medicinal chemistry program identified substitutions that resulted in an inhibitor with moderate activity across various Gram-positive bacterial LigA enzymes.
