Atomic-Level Structures Reveal How a Repurposed 3-Aminopyrazine-2-carboxamide Scaffold Inhibits Mycobacterium tuberculosis Prolyl-tRNA Synthetase

Abstract Tuberculosis (TB) is again the world’s leading cause of death from a single infectious agent. Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are essential for protein synthesis and are promising drug targets because bacterial and human enzymes differ. We repurposed a human prolyl-tRNA synth...
