Popis: Dihydrodipicolinate synthase (DHDPS), responsible for the first committed step of the diaminopimelate pathway for lysine biosynthesis, has become an attractive target for the development of new antibacterial and herbicidal agents. Herein, we report the discovery and exploration of the first inhibitors of E. coli DHDPS which have been identified from screening lead and are not based on substrates from the lysine biosynthesis pathway. Over 50 thiazolidinediones and related analogues have been prepared in order to thoroughly evaluate the structure-activity relationships against this enzyme of significant interest.
