DNA binding ligands with in vivo efficacy in murine models of bacterial infection: optimization of internal aromatic amino acids.

Abstract:

:DNA binding ligands with potent antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive bacteria were further optimized by variation of the internal aromatic amino acids. This modification led to compounds with improved in vivo efficacy in lethal murine models of peritonitis (methicillin-resistant S. aureus, MRSA) and lung infection (S. pneumoniae).
