We have identified a strain of Streptomyces in which aerial hyphae formation appears to be especially sensitive to inhibition by protein kinase inhibitors. Using this assay, a number of bacterial cultures have been screened and novel inhibitors of eukaryotic protein kinases have been identified. Since M. tuberculosis possesses multiple eukaryotic-like protein kinase genes, we tested the active kinase inhibitors for the inhibition of mycobacterial growth and obtained several potent compounds. This identifies a new biochemical class of antimycobacterial agents.
