Mycobacterial membrane protein Large 3 (MmpL3), an inner membrane protein, plays a crucial role in the transport of mycolic acids that are essential for the viability ofM. tuberculosisand has been a promising therapeutic target for new anti-TB agents. Herein, we report the discovery of pyridine-2-methylamine antitubercular compounds using a structure-based drug design strategy. Compound62stands out as the most potent compound with high activity againstM. tb strain H37Rv (MIC = 0.016 μg/mL) as well as the clinically isolated strains of MDR/XDR-TB (MIC = 0.0039–0.0625 μg/mL), low Vero cell toxicity (IC50≥ 16 μg/mL), and moderate liver microsomal stability (CLint= 28 μL/min/mg). Furthermore, the resistant mutant of S288T due to single nucleotide polymorphism inmmpL3was resistant to pyridine-2-methylamine62, demonstrating compound62is likely target to MmpL3.
