- There is a great need for identification and development of new anti-tuberculosis drugs with novel targets. Recent drug-discovery efforts typically focus on identifying inhibitors but not activators that perturb metabolic enzymes' functions as a means to kill Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). Here, we describe a class of quinoline compounds, Z0933/Z0930, which kill Mtb by acting as activators of glutamate kinase (GK), a previously untargeted enzyme catalyzing the first step of proline biosynthesis. We further show that Z0933/Z0930 augment proline production and induce Mtb killing via proline-derived redox imbalance and production of reactive oxygen species. This work highlights the effectiveness of gain-of-function probes against Mtb and provides a framework for the discovery of next-generation allosteric activators of GK.
