Abstract

The potent antimycobacterial activity of (±)-platencin is reported. Complete inhibition of Mycobacterium smegmatis growth was observed at MICs of 0.5 μg mL−1 and 0.3 μg mL−1 under aerobic and hypoxic conditions, respectively. Notably, the compound exhibited potent bacteriostatic activities towards Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv (MIC = 2 μg mL−1), multi-drug-resistant M. tuberculosis (MIC = 1 μg mL−1), and extensively drug-resistant M. tuberculosis (MIC = 1 μg mL−1). An overexpression study of the transformants of M. smegmatis revealed that platencin selectively targeted Mt-KasB and modestly inhibited Mt-KasA and Mt-FabH.
