2XOI31YC4N - PRETOMANID

The mechanism of action of pretomanid is thought to involve inhibition of the synthesis of cell wall lipids under aerobic conditions and generation of reactive nitrogen species under anaerobic conditions. Reductive activation of pretomanid by a mycobacterial deazaflavin (F420)-dependent nitro-reductase is required for activity under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions. |
