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.
