(-)-DMNP
(-)-DMNP is an inhibitor targeting RelZ and Rel_Msm, with activity against mycobacteria. (-)-DMNP binds to structurally similar sites of RelZ and Rel_Msm, thereby inhibiting (p) ppGpp synthesis activity. (-)-DMNP inhibits the formation of persistent mycobacterial cells and eradicates their biofilms. (-)-DMNP can be used in the research of bacterial infections and tuberculosis.
