The enzyme diaminopimelate aminotransferase (DAP-AT) is a good potential target for the design of novel antibacterial agents. We have synthesised a series of peptide hydrazines based on the structure of the natural substrate of DAP-AT. These compounds show varied inhibition properties in vitrovs. DAP-AT from E. coli as well as moderate antimicrobial activity vs. E. coli. Examination of the kinetics of inhibition reveals that hydrazine, as well as the ...
