Bioactivity

Target IC50
LpxC:4.0 nM. (Ki)
In Vivo
CHIR-090 is a potent E. coli antibiotic, demonstrating significant E. coli LpxC inhibition within the low nanomolar (nM) range in vitro. Notably, E. coli W3110 colonies resistant to a 1 μg/mL concentration of CHIR-090 do not occur unless subjected to prior chemical mutagenesis. However, a specific strain of E. coli W3110 can grow on LB agar with CHIR-090 concentrations ranging from 1 to 10 μg/mL, which is significantly higher (4 to 40 times) than the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 0.25 μg/mL identified under our conditions for the wild-type E. coli W3110. The growth rate of W3110RL strain is unaffected by 1 μg/mL CHIR-090, maintaining a doubling time of 40 minutes, identical to that of the wild-type strain without the inhibitor. Conversely, the wild-type strain ceases growth approximately two hours after exposure to 1 μg/mL of CHIR-090.
In Vitro
CHIR-090 is a highly effective, slow, tight-binding inhibitor targeting the LpxC deacetylase from Aquifex aeolicus, displaying significant antibiotic properties against Gram-negative pathogens like P. aeruginosa and E. coli. Its mode of action includes a two-step slow, tight-binding inhibition mechanism against E. coli LpxC, with an inhibition constant (Ki) of 4 nM, indicating potent activity at low nanomolar concentrations against LpxC orthologues from a range of Gram-negative bacteria including Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Neisseria meningitidis, and Helicobacter pylori. Contrarily, CHIR-090 exhibits weaker inhibition against LpxC from Rhizobium leguminosarum (Ki=340 nM), demonstrating a reduced efficacy and conventional inhibition pattern without the slow, tight-binding characteristic. This differential inhibition renders E. coli strains with LpxC from R. leguminosarum resistant to CHIR-090, even at concentrations 400 times the minimal inhibitory concentration effective against wild-type E. coli. Nevertheless, CHIR-090 showcases outstanding antibiotic efficacy against select pathogens, on par with ciprofloxacin, emphasizing its potential as a therapeutic agent.
