DHFR-IN-22

DHFR-IN-22 (Compound 8) is a DHFR (Dihydrofolate Reductase) inhibitor belonging to the class of 2,4-diaminopyrimidine compounds. DHFR-IN-22 exhibits significant inhibitory activity against purified DHFR enzyme and major species of nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM), namely Mycobacterium avium and Mycobacterium abscessus. It shows an IC₅₀ of 1.1 nM and MIC of 1.5 μg/mL against M. abscessus, and an IC₅₀ of 6.3 nM and MIC of 0.1 μg/mL against M. avium. Additionally, it demonstrates an IC₅₀ of 2100 nM against human DHFR. DHFR-IN-22 holds potential for studying novel strategies to combat NTM infections.
