Abstract
Compounds which inhibit microbial growth or attenuate the virulence of pathogen microorganisms. Compounds of the invention inhibit UDP-galactopyranose mutase (UGM) and have activity as inhibitors of microbial growth of microorganisms which contain this enzyme and particularly those microorganisms in which this enzyme is responsible for the incorporation of galactofuranose residues, particularly for uridine 5'-diphosphate (UDP) galactopyranose mutase. Compounds of the invention inhibit UDP-galactopyranose mutase (UGM) and have activity to attenuate virulence of pathogenic microorganisms, including mycobacteria.
