Antitubercular agent-52

Antitubercular agent-52 (Compound 7k) is a chemical compound that acts as an antitubercular agent targeting Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) . It specifically inhibits the bacterium's cytochrome bcc (cyt-bcc) electron transport chain and also affects cytochrome bd (cyt-bd) . By disrupting a crucial energy metabolism pathway in Mtb, Antitubercular agent-52 impedes electron transport and ATP production, showing potential for use in tuberculosis research.
