  • Patent number: 8946188
    Abstract: Many pathogens, including Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Yersinia pestis, rely on an iron acquisition system based on siderophores, secreted iron-chelating compounds with extremely high Fe(III) affinity. The compounds of the invention are inhibitors of domain salicylation enzymes, which catalyze the salicylation of an aroyl carrier protein (ArCP) domain to form a salicyl-ArCP domain thioester intermediate via a two-step reaction. The compounds include the intermediate mimic 5?-O—[N-(salicyl)sulfamoyl]-adenosine (salicyl-AMS) and analogs thereof. These compounds are inhibitors of the salicylate activity of MbtA, YbtE, PchD, and other domain salicylation enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of siderophores. Therefore, these compounds may be used in the treatment of infection caused by microorganisms which rely on siderphore-based iron acquisition systems.

  • Publication number: 20110262666
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a thermal transfer ribbon containing exfoliated layered inorganic nanoparticles or exfoliated layered double hydroxides and a manufacturing method thereof, and more particularly to a sublimation thermal transfer ribbon wherein a second adhesive layer, a transfer ink layer and a transfer protective layer are formed on one surface of a base film having a lubricating heat-resistant layer and a first adhesive layer formed on the other surface thereof, in which the lubricating heat-resistant layer, the transfer ink layer and the transfer protective layer contain exfoliated layered inorganic nanoparticles or exfoliated layered double hydroxide nanoparticles to improve the heat resistance, image uniformity and abrasion resistance of the thermal transfer ribbon.
