摘要

Abstract Shigellosis, a bacterial disease, causes the death of more than one million people per year. Extensive studies of Shigella flexneri have recognized tRNA-guanine transglycosylase (TGT, EC 2.4. 2.29) as one of the key enzymes involved in the regulation of bacterial virulence. Based on the crystal structure of the Zymomonas mobilis enzyme, we have embarked on the rational design of TGT inhibitors. Herein, we describe the structure- ...
