2-amino-6-propyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1-benzothiophene-3-carbonitrile | i.e. I3-AG85, enzyme inhibition leads to accumulation of trehalose monomycolate and disruption of the bacterial envelope, I3-AG85 also inhibits Mycobacterium tuberculosis survival in infected primary macrophages. Binding of I3-AG85 to Ag85C is similar to its binding to the artificial substrate octylthioglucoside, overview | Mycobacterium tuberculosis |

malfunction | inhibition of Ag85 protein family enzymes through substrate analogs hinders growth of mycobacteria and inhibition of Ag85C leads to accumulation of trehalose monomycolate | Mycobacterium tuberculosis |
physiological function | the mycoloyl transferase activity of antigen 85 (Ag85) protein family, consisting of Ag85A, -B, and -C, generates trehalose dimycolate, an envelope lipid essential for Mycobacterium tuberculosis virulence, and cell wall arabinogalactan-linked mycolic acids | Mycobacterium tuberculosis |
