Comment: NTB-3119 is a preclinical candidate for the treatment of tuberculosis (TB), identified from a novel series of benzothiopyranones and designed through scaffold morphing from the benzothiazinone class of antimycobacterial compounds [1]. It is an inhibitor of decaprenylphosphoryl-beta-D-ribose oxidase (DprE1), an essential mycobacterial cell wall biosynthesis enzyme.
