Structural highlights
FunctionSYT_ECOLI ThrS is also a translational repressor protein, it controls the translation of its own gene by binding to its mRNA.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00184] Publication Abstract from PubMedA series of potent and bacteria-selective threonyl-tRNA synthetase (ThrRS) inhibitors have been identified using structure-based drug design. These compounds occupied the substrate binding site of ThrRS and showed excellent binding affinities for all of the bacterial orthologues tested. Some of the compounds displayed greatly improved bacterial selectivity. Key residues responsible for potency and bacteria/human ThrRS selectivity have been identified. Antimicrobial activity has been achieved against wild-type Haemophilus influenzae and efflux-deficient mutants of Escherichia coli and Burkholderia thailandensis.
