Natural bioactive compound harboring anti-tuberculosis activity Pyridomycin

Date:April 07 2026Web Page No:520114

Pyridomycin is a cyclic peptide compound discovered from Streptomyces. Maeda, Umezawa, and their collagues in Institute of Microbial Chemistry reported that the compound exhibited antibacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis.1~3)
This compound inhibited competitively InhA which is NADH dependent enoyl-ACP reductase in synthetic pathway of mycolic acids as a molecular target of antituberculosis drug, isoniazid, in a different manner from the drug. In addition, this compound also showed the inhibitory activity to a similar level of wild type M. tuberculosis against drug-resistant bacteria harboring a mutation of catalase-peroxidase (KatG) to obtain isoniazid resistance.4,5) Therefore, the bioactive compound has provided interesting insights into the development of novel anti-tuberculosis drugs.

Application Note

  • Pyridomycin inhibited growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (1.6 μg/ml). 1)
  • This compound competitively inhibited enoyl-ACP reductase (InhA) in M. tuberculosis (Ki: 6.5 μM).4)
  • This compound showed the inhibitory activity to a similar level of wild type M. tuberculosis against drug-resistant bacteria harboring a mutation of catalase-peroxidase (KatG) to obtain isoniazid resistance.4)
  • X-ray structure analysis of pyridomycin and InhA complex revealed that pyridomycin forms a unique structure to block both NADH cofactor- and lipid substrate-binding pockets of InhA.5)
