Bacterial RNA polymerase (RNAP) is essential for transcription and is an antibacterial target for small molecule inhibitors. The binding region of myxopyronin B (MyxB), a bacterial RNAP inhibitor, offers the possibility of new inhibitor design. The molecular design program SPROUT has been used in conjunction with the X-ray cocrystal structure of Thermus thermophilus RNAP with MyxB to design novel inhibitors based on a substituted pyridyl-benzamide scaffold. A series of molecules, with molecular masses
