Here, we describe the synthesis of original triazole-containing inhibitors targeting the DNA gyrase, a well-validated drug target for developing new antibiotics. Our compounds demonstrate potent antibacterial activity against various pathogenic bacteria, with notable potency against (). Moreover, one hit, compound , named BDM71403, was shown to be more potent in than the NBTI of reference, gepotidacin. Mechanistic enzymology assays reveal a competitive interaction of BDM71403 with fluoroquinolones within the gyrase cleavage core. High-resolution cryo-electron microscopy structural analysis provides detailed insights into the ternary complex formed by the gyrase, double-stranded DNA, and either BDM71403 or gepotidacin, providing a rational framework to understand the superior efficacy on . This study highlights the potential of triazole-based scaffolds as promising gyrase inhibitors, offering new avenues for drug development in the fight against antimicrobial resistance. |
