Thymidine monophosphate kinase (TMPK) has emerged as an attractive target for developing inhibitors of Mycobacterium tuberculosis growth. In this study the receptor-independent (RI) 4D-QSAR formalism has been used to develop QSAR models and corresponding 3D-pharmacophores for a set of 5'-thiourea-substituted

In this paper, we report the synthesis of hydroxymethylphosphonate alpha-DNAs and related compounds by use of the H-phosphonate method. These modified alpha-DNAs were designed to improve the inherent poor solubility of well-known methylphosphonate alpha-DNAs by introduction of a more hydrophilic

We report on Mycobacterium tuberculosis thymidine monophosphate kinase (TMPKmt) inhibitory activities of a series of new 3'- and 5'-modified thymidine analogues including α- and β-derivatives. In addition, several analogues were synthesized in which the 4-oxygen was replaced by a more
