MbtI Inhibition studies aid in the future design of [http://psychology.wikia.com/wiki/Antitubercular_drugs anti-tubercular agents] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broad-spectrum_antibiotic broad-spectrum antibiotics] with a novel mode of action. Mimics of the enzyme-bound intermediate of MbtI, <scene name='69/694235/3sr6_inhibitor/1'>isochorismate</scene>, prove to be significantly more potent inhibitors than mimics of the substrate, chorismate <ref name= "1a"/>. The isochorismate mimic based on a 2,3-dihydroxybenzoate scaffold showed low-micromolar inhibition constants against MbtI that were an order of magnitude more potents than the natural substrates. The most potent inhibitors contained hydrophobic enol ether side chains at C3 instead of the enol-pyruvyl side chains seen in chorismate and isochorismate (Turvey 2010). Increased potency of inhibitors with a substituted enolpyruvyl group has been attributed to a change in the binding mode through localized flexibility of the peptide backbone.

Two binding mode at the MbtI active site have been observed based on the structure of the inhibitor.
