EspL is essential for virulence and stabilizes EspE, EspF and EspH levels in Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Stewart Cole, Claudia Sala, Andrej Benjak, Nina Theres Odermatt, Sofia Ulrika Magnusdotter Von Schultz, Paloma Julia Soler Arnedo

The ESX-1, type VII, secretion system represents the major virulence determinant of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, one of the most successful intracellular pathogens. Here, by combining genetic and high-throughput approaches, we show that EspL, a protein of 1 ...

Highly Reduced Genome of the New Species Mycobacterium uberis, the Causative Agent of Nodular Thelitis and Tuberculoid Scrotitis in Livestock and a Close Relative of the Leprosy Bacilli

Stewart Cole, Andrej Benjak, Charlotte Avanzi

Nodular thelitis is a chronic enzootic infection affecting dairy cows and goats. The causative agent was recently shown to be related to the leprosy-causing bacilli Mycobacterium leprae and Mycobacterium lepromatosis. In this study, the genome of this path ...

Fluorescent Benzothiazinone Analogues Efficiently and Selectively Label Dpre1 in Mycobacteria and Actinobacteria

Paul Joseph Dyson, Thierry Laroche, John McKinney, Stewart Cole, Neeraj Dhar, Raphael Christopher Sommer, Joao Pedro De Almeida Neres, Raju Mukherjee, Jérémie Piton

Benzothiazinones (BTZ) are highly potent bactericidal inhibitors of mycobacteria and the lead compound, BTZ043, and the optimized drug candidate, PBTZ169, have potential for the treatment of tuberculosis. Here, we exploited the tractability of the BTZ scaf ...

Promoter mutagenesis for fine-tuning expression of essential genes in Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Gaëlle Séraphine Kolly, Stewart Cole, Claudia Sala

A range of regulated gene expression systems has been developed for mycobacteria in the last few years to facilitate the study of essential genes, validate novel drug targets and evaluate their vulnerability. Among these, the TetR/Pip-OFF repressible promo ...

Arylvinylpiperazine Amides, a New Class of Potent Inhibitors Targeting QcrB of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Stewart Cole, Raphael Christopher Sommer, Shi-Yan Caroline Foo, Anthony Vocat, Andrej Benjak, Jérémie Piton, Andréanne Lupien

New drugs are needed to control the current tuberculosis (TB) pandemic caused by infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis. We report here on our work with AX-35, an arylvinylpiperazine amide, and four related analogs, which are potent antitubercular agent ...

Structure-Based Drug Design and Characterization of Sulfonyl-Piperazine Benzothiazinone Inhibitors of DprE1 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Stewart Cole, Shi-Yan Caroline Foo, Anthony Vocat, Jérémie Piton, Andréanne Lupien

Macozinone (MCZ) is a tuberculosis (TB) drug candidate that specifically targets the essential flavoenzyme DprE1, thereby blocking synthesis of the cell wall precursor decaprenyl phosphoarabinose (DPA) and provoking lysis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. As ...

Optimized Background Regimen for Treatment of Active Tuberculosis with the Next-Generation Benzothiazinone Macozinone (PBTZ169)

Stewart Cole, Shi-Yan Caroline Foo, Anthony Vocat, Jean-Yves Gillon, Andréanne Lupien

The efficacy of the standardized four-drug regimen (comprising isoniazid, rifampin, pyrazinamide, and ethambutol) for the treatment of tuberculosis (TB) is menaced by the emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) and extensively drugresistant (XDR) strains of ...

Structural studies of Mycobacterium tuberculosis DprE1 interacting with its inhabitors

Stewart Cole, Shi-Yan Caroline Foo, Jérémie Piton

The flavoenzyme DprEl catalyses a crucial step in arabinan production for cell wall biosynthesis in Mycobacterium tuberculosis and is a highly vulnerable drug target. It was first discovered using benzothiazinones (BTZ): exquisitely potent bactericidal age ...

NOS2-deficient mice with hypoxic necrotizing lung lesions predict outcomes of tuberculosis chemotherapy in humans

Stewart Cole

During active TB in humans a spectrum of pulmonary granulomas with central necrosis and hypoxia exists. BALB/c mice, predominantly used in TB drug development, do not reproduce this complex pathology thereby inaccurately predicting clinical outcome. We fou ...

In vitro Controlled Release from Solid Pharmaceutical Formulations of two new Adamantane Aminoethers with Antitubercular Activity (I)

Stewart Cole, Anthony Vocat

The aim of the present investigation was to develop matrix tablet formulations for the in vitro controlled release of 2 new tuberculocidal adamantane aminoethers (compounds I and II), congeneric to the adamantane derivative SQ109 , which is in final clinic ...

Rv3852 (H-NS) of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Is Not Involved in Nucleoid Compaction and Virulence Regulation

Gaëlle Séraphine Kolly, Stewart Cole, Claudia Sala, Anthony Vocat, Andrej Benjak, Nina Theres Odermatt, Andréanne Lupien

A handful of nucleoid-associated proteins (NAPs) regulate the vast majority of genes in a bacterial cell. H-NS, the histone-like nucleoid-structuring protein, is one of these NAPs and protects Escherichia coli from foreign gene expression. Though lacking a ...

Synthesis of Adamantane Aminoethers with Antitubercular Potential

Stewart Cole, Anthony Vocat

Background: Intrigued by the fact that aminoadamantane derivatives, bearing the active 1,2-ethylenediamine moiety, are promising antitubercular agents, we report herein the synthesis and the antitubercular evaluation of N,N'-substituded-4,4'-[adamantane-2, ...

EspC forms a filamentous structure in the cell envelope of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and impacts ESX-1 secretion

Stewart Cole, Claudia Sala, Jan Lars Rybniker, Ye Lou

Pathogenicity of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tb) is mediated by the ESX-1 secretion system, which exports EsxA and EsxB, the major virulence factors that are co-secreted with EspA and EspC. Functional information about ESX-1 components is scarce. Here, ...
