J.Med.Chem., 68:20264-20282, 2025 Cited by PubMed Abstract: Neglected tropical diseases caused by trypanosomatid parasites present a major public healthcare issue, partly due to emerging resistance. Attachment of ω-alkynyl chains characteristic of the lipid tails of antiparasitic peptides to the -position of anisomycin gave ethers exhibiting potent activity, rivalling that of the parent ribosomal inhibitor, especially against resistant strains. Single-particle cryoelectron microscopy analysis revealed that -propargyl anisomycin binds to the highly conserved peptidyl transferase center of the ribosome similar to the parent inhibitor. Thermal proteomic profiling and gene ontology analysis demonstrated that -propargyl anisomycin exhibited a broader mode of action, including activity against glycosome-associated proteins. Alkynyl substituents improved antiparasitic activity against resistant strains, likely by enlarging the mode of action, offering a novel path toward therapy against trypanosomatid infections.
