- W2894982867 abstract "An alarming increase in tuberculosis (TB) caused by drug-resistant strains of Mycobacteriumtuberculosis has created an urgent need for new antituberculosis drugs acting via novel mechanisms. Phylogenomic and comparative genomic analyses reviewed here reveal that the TB causing bacteria comprise a small group of organisms differing from all other mycobacteria in numerous regards. Comprehensive analyses of protein sequences from mycobacterial genomes have identified 63 conserved signature inserts and deletions (indels) (CSIs) in important proteins that are distinctive characteristics of the TB-complex of bacteria. The identified CSIs provide potential means for development of novel diagnostics as well as therapeutics for the TB-complex of bacteria based on four key observations: (i) The CSIs exhibit a high degree of exclusivity towards the TB-complex of bacteria; (ii) Earlier work on CSIs provide evidence that they play important/essential functions in the organisms for which they exhibit specificity; (iii) CSIs are located in surface-exposed loops of the proteins implicated in mediating novel interactions; (iv) Homologs of the CSIs containing proteins, or the CSIs in such homologs, are generally not found in humans. Based on these characteristics, it is hypothesized that the high-throughput virtual screening for compounds binding specifically to the CSIs (or CSI containing regions) and thereby inhibiting the cellular functions of the CSIs could lead to the discovery of a novel class of drugs specifically targeting the TB-complex of organisms." @default.
