Comprehensive mechanistic view of the hydrolysis of oxadiazole-based inhibitors by Histone Deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) [PDF]
Histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors used in the clinic typically contain a hydroxamate zinc-binding group (ZBG). However, more recent work has shown that the use of alternative ZBGs, and, in particular, the heterocyclic oxadiazoles, can confer higher ...

First crystal structures of 1-deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate synthase (DXPS) from Mycobacterium tuberculosis indicate a distinct mechanism of intermediate stabilization [PDF]
The development of drug resistance by Mycobacterium tuberculosis and other pathogenic bacteria emphasizes the need for new antibiotics. Unlike animals, most bacteria synthesize isoprenoid precursors through the MEP pathway. 1-Deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate

Histone acetylation is a highly interesting epigenetic target for drug therapy. Histone deacetylase enzymes (HDACs) are overexpressed in several diseases, including cancers. Most of the clinically used HDAC inhibitors involve hydroxamate group as a zinc-

Despite the increased success rates of histone deacetylases inhibitors (HDACi) as potent anticancer agents, many metabolic obstacles face the hydroxamic acid-based HDAC inhibitors, which inspired us to develop non-hydroxamate HDAC inhibitors.

Probes for Non-invasive Matrix Metalloproteinase-targeted Imaging with PET and SPECT [PDF]
Dysregulation of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) activity can lead to a wide range of disease states such as atherosclerosis, inflammation or cancer. The ability to image MMP activity non-invasively in vivo, by radiolabelled synthetic inhibitors, would ...
