New paper out today from @Katrina_Holly98 and Prabhakara Rao Tharra on their work on development of bacterial carbonic anhydrase inhibitors against vancomycin-resistant Enterococci. They produced an analog with oral efficacy rescuing mice in a septicemic peritonitis model.
Bacterial carbonic anhydrase inhibitors with improved PK and efficacy in VRE septicemia mouse model. #JMedChem @flahertylab @DrugDiscoveryPU @Purdue_MCMP go.acs.org/d4V

This project in collab with Dr. Val Watts and @Purdue_MCMP grad student @tiffany_summerr has gone from hit identification to through two manuscripts. The current scaffold had solubility liabilities and we took an approach to break up the molecular planarity to improve solubility
