Tuberculosis is the ninth deadliest disease in the world, killing 1.4 million people yearly. The mycolic acid coating the outside of the bacteria is what makes the tuberculosis difficult to treat. With the addition of mutations in the genes of the bacteria, traditional first line drugs, such as Rifampicin and Isoniazid, are rendered useless. The goal of my research was to build a new inhibitor for the Mtbenzyme, Fatty acid degradation D32, better known as FadD32. This enzyme contributes to the condensationof mycolic acid. The purpose of this research is to not only develop a new inhibitor for this enzyme, but to designnew molecules that have never been tested to our knowledge before. If this research is successful, then the inhibitor could potentially be further synthesized into a drug to treat patients with MTB.
