Journal ArticleDOI

A diarylquinoline drug active on the ATP synthase of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

TL;DR: A diarylquinoline, R207910, is identified that potently inhibits both drug-sensitive and drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis in vitro and mutants selected in vitro suggest that the drug targets the proton pump of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthase.
Journal ArticleDOI

The challenge of new drug discovery for tuberculosis

TL;DR: In this review, innovations in TB drug discovery and evolving strategies to bring newer agents more quickly to patients are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diarylquinolines target subunit c of mycobacterial ATP synthase.

TL;DR: It is established by genetic, biochemical and binding assays that the oligomeric subunit c (AtpE) of ATP synthase is the target of R207910, and targeting energy metabolism is a new, promising approach for antibacterial drug discovery.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diarylquinolines Are Bactericidal for Dormant Mycobacteria as a Result of Disturbed ATP Homeostasis

TL;DR: It is concluded that this residual ATP synthase activity is indispensable for the survival of dormant mycobacteria, making it a promising drug target to tackle dormant infections.
