Pyridomycin is a structurally unusual antimycobacterial cyclodepsipeptide whose composition includes two rare moieties: 3-(3-pyridyl)-L-alanine and 2-hydroxy-3-methylpent-2-enoic acid. It inhibits NADH-dependent enoyl (Acyl-Carrier-Protein) reductase InhA, preventing mycolic acid synthesis in M. tuberculosis, including isoniazid-resistant strains (MICs = 0.31-0.63 ug/ml).
