FtsZ-IN-12

FtsZ-IN-12 (Compound 16e) is the inhibitor for filamentous temperature-sensitive mutant Z (FtsZ) that promotes the polymerization of FtsZ protein, inhibits its GTPase activity, thereby interfering with bacterial cell division process. FtsZ-IN-12 exhibits boardspectrum antibacterial activity that inhibits B. subtilis ATCC9372, B. pumilus CMCC63202, S. aureus ATCC25923, E. coli BW25113 and A. baumannii ATCC19606 with MIC of 0.062-1 μg/mL. FtsZ-IN-12 inhibits the formation of bacterial biofilms and exhibits a clearing effect on mature biofilms. FtsZ-IN-12 exhibits bactericidal activity without hemolytic toxicity to mammalian red blood cells (15 mg/kg).
