Biotin protein ligase[1]
Bio-AMS TFA targets bacterial biotin protein ligase (BPL), an enzyme essential for biotin metabolism in bacteria. By inhibiting this enzyme, the compound disrupts biotinylation of key carboxylases involved in fatty acid and lipid biosynthesis. This target is selective for bacterial BPL, making it an attractive candidate for antitubercular drug development. The compound does not inhibit human biotin-dependent enzymes at relevant concentrations. |

| ln Vitro |
Bio-AMS exhibits outstanding antitubercular action against MDR/XDR-TB and Mtb H37Rv strains, with MICs ranging from 0.16 to 0.625 μM, and is unaffected by modifications to the main carbon source[1]. In mouse macrophages infected with Mtb, Bio-AMS (2.5, 5 and 10 μM; 24 h) reduces Mtb development in a concentration-dependent manner without causing any damage to the mitochondria[2].
In vitro, Bio-AMS exhibits excellent antitubercular activity against Mtb H37Rv and MDR/XDR-TB strains with minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) ranging from 0.16 to 0.625 microM. Its activity is not affected by changes to the primary carbon source. Bio-AMS (2.5, 5, and 10 microM; 24 hours) inhibits growth of Mtb in a concentration-dependent manner in Mtb-infected mouse macrophages. Additionally, it shows no signs of mitochondrial toxicity in these assays. |
| ln Vivo |
In vivo efficacy data for Bio-AMS TFA have not been extensively reported in standard product literature, as the compound is primarily characterized in in vitro and cell-based assays. The primary focus has been on demonstrating its selective activity against mycobacterial strains in culture and in infected macrophage models. Further in vivo animal model studies would be required to evaluate its therapeutic potential and pharmacokinetic properties.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
Binding assays for Bio-AMS TFA typically involve biochemical inhibition studies using purified bacterial biotin protein ligase enzyme. The compound is incubated with the enzyme, biotin, and ATP, and the inhibition of biotinyl-AMP formation is measured. IC50 values can be determined from dose-response curves. Competitive binding studies may also be performed to confirm the mechanism of inhibition at the biotin binding site.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cellular assays for Bio-AMS TFA utilize Mtb-infected mouse macrophage models. Macrophages are infected with Mtb H37Rv or MDR strains, then treated with varying concentrations of Bio-AMS (e.g., 2.5, 5, and 10 microM for 24 hours). Bacterial growth is assessed by colony-forming unit (CFU) counts or metabolic activity assays. Cytotoxicity is evaluated in uninfected control cells using standard viability assays such as MTT.
|
| Animal Protocol |
Detailed in vivo animal protocols for Bio-AMS TFA are not extensively reported in available product literature. As the compound is currently characterized in in vitro and cell-based systems, standard mouse models of tuberculosis infection could be employed for future efficacy studies, typically involving intravenous or oral administration of the compound followed by measurement of bacterial burden in lung and spleen tissues.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic data for Bio-AMS TFA are not extensively detailed in standard product literature. The compound is primarily characterized for its antitubercular activity in vitro. As a biotin protein ligase inhibitor, its physicochemical properties would need to be evaluated in dedicated PK studies to determine oral bioavailability, half-life, plasma protein binding, and tissue distribution for potential therapeutic applications.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicological data for Bio-AMS TFA are limited in available product literature. In vitro studies in Mtb-infected mouse macrophages show no signs of mitochondrial toxicity. However, comprehensive toxicology assessments including acute and repeated-dose toxicity, genotoxicity, and safety pharmacology have not been described. Standard precautions for handling research-use chemical compounds should be followed.
