SecA inhibitors: next generation antimicrobials

doi:10.5246/jcps.2012.06.067

Abstract

Abstract:

Health problems caused by bacterial infection have become a major public health concern in recent years due to the widespread emergence of drug-resistant bacterial strains. Therefore, the need for the development of new types of antimicrobial agents, especially those with a novel mechanism of action, is urgent. SecA, one of the key components of the secretion (Sec) pathway, is a new promising target for antimicrobial agent design. In recent years, promising leads targeting SecA have been identified and the feasibility of developing antimicrobial agents through the inhibition of SecA has been demonstrated. We hope this review will help stimulate more research in this area so that new antimicrobials can be obtained by targeting SecA.

Key words: SecA inhibitors, Antimicrobials, Natural sources, Small-molecule inhibitors
