Comment: LFF571 is a macrocyclic thiopetide with activity against Gram-positive bacteria and derived from the naturally occurring antibacterial GE2270 A [2]. Functionally, it inhibits bacterial protein synthesis by targeting elongation factor Tu (EF-Tu) [3]. Note that the structure shown here matches the CAS-assigned structure. The PubChem link, provided in the table below, is to their standardized chemical structure (CID 42638236), although this is not an exact structural match.
