Comment: Rifaquizinone (formerly CBR-2092, then TNP-2092) is a rifamycin-quinolone hybrid antibacterial compound [2]. It exerts combined effects on bacterial RNA polymerase, DNA gyrase and DNA topoisomerase IV, although RNA polymerase has been reporetd as the primary cellular target [4]. Rifaquizinone was developed for potential to treat biofilm associated infections such as those caused by staphylococci [3-4]. Initial development was by Cumbre Pharmaceuticals, but it is now being taken forward by TenNor Therapeutics, hence the change in research code.
