JNJ-6640 is an inhibitor targeting mycobacterial PurF (the first enzyme in the de novo purine biosynthesis pathway) with potent anti-tuberculosis activity. JNJ-6640 exhibits bactericidal activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis in vitro, with an MIC90 of 8.6 nM. JNJ-6640 disrupts de novo purine biosynthesis, inhibits M. tuberculosis DNA replication in vivo. JNJ-6640 exhibits anti-tuberculosis efficacy in acutely infected mice. JNJ-6640 can be used for the study of tuberculosis.

Description

JNJ-6640 is an inhibitor targeting mycobacterial PurF (the first enzyme in the de novo purine biosynthesis pathway) with potent anti-tuberculosis activity. JNJ-6640 exhibits bactericidal activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis in vitro, with an MIC90 of 8.6 nM. JNJ-6640 disrupts de novo purine biosynthesis, inhibits M. tuberculosis DNA replication in vivo. JNJ-6640 exhibits anti-tuberculosis efficacy in acutely infected mice. JNJ-6640 can be used for the study of tuberculosis[1].

In Vitro

JNJ-6640 exhibits potent in vitro inhibitory and bactericidal activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv strain, with a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC90) of 8.6 nM and a minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC99.9) of 140 nM; in cholesterol medium, (MIC90) is 29.1 nM; for intracellular M. tuberculosis in THP-1 macrophages IC50 is 26.1 nM[1].
JNJ-6640 (100 nM, 4 h) significantly reduces the incorporation ratio of 15N into adenine and adenosine monophosphate (AMP) in M. tuberculosis[1].
JNJ-6640 (1 nM) inhibits M. tuberculosis PurF enzyme[1].
JNJ-6640 (0.6 μM, 6-10 h) arrests the growth of M. tuberculosis expressing TdTomato[1].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
