Product Information
The 6-Fluoro-3-indoxyl-beta-D-galactopyranoside is a powerful antituberculosis drug belonging to the class of rifamycins. It is highly effective in treating tuberculosis infections as it exhibits strong bactericidal activity. This compound works by binding to DNA-dependent RNA polymerase, preventing transcription and replication, thereby inhibiting bacterial growth. Extensive research has shown its high efficacy using advanced techniques like patch-clamp on human erythrocytes. Metabolically, this active form undergoes various transformations including hydrolysis by esterases or glucuronidases, oxidation by cytochrome P450 enzymes, reduction by glutathione reductase, or conjugation with glucuronic acid. Additionally, it specifically targets markers expressed at high levels in Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains and inhibits their growth in culture.
