Tuberculosis (TB) is a serious and potentially fatal disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tb). The occurrence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) and extensively drug-resistant (XDR) M. tb is a significant public health concern because most of the anti-TB drugs that have been in use for over 40 years are no longer effective for the treatment of these infections. Recently, new anti-TB lead compounds such as cyclomarin A, lassomycin, and ecumicin, which are cyclic peptides from actinomycetes, have shown potent anti-TB activity against MDR and XDR M. tb as well as drug-susceptible M. tb in vitro. The target molecule of these antibiotics is ClpC1, a protein that is essential for the growth of M. tb. In this review, we introduce the three anti-TB lead compounds as potential anti-TB therapeutic agents targeting ClpC1 and compare them with the existing anti-TB drugs approved by the US Food and Drug Administration.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D009169	Mycobacterium tuberculosis	A species of gram-positive, aerobic bacteria that produces TUBERCULOSIS in humans, other primates, CATTLE; DOGS; and some other animals which have contact with humans. Growth tends to be in serpentine, cordlike masses in which the bacilli show a parallel orientation.	Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv
D010456	Peptides, Cyclic	Peptides whose amino acid residues are linked together forming a circular chain. Some of them are ANTI-INFECTIVE AGENTS; some are biosynthesized non-ribosomally (PEPTIDE BIOSYNTHESIS, NON-RIBOSOMAL).

D000995	Antitubercular Agents	Drugs used in the treatment of tuberculosis. They are divided into two main classes: "first-line" agents, those with the greatest efficacy and acceptable degrees of toxicity used successfully in the great majority of cases; and "second-line" drugs used in drug-resistant cases or those in which some other patient-related condition has compromised the effectiveness of primary therapy.

D017277	Drug Approval	Process that is gone through in order for a drug to receive approval by a government regulatory agency. This includes any required pre-clinical or clinical testing, review, submission, and evaluation of the applications and test results, and post-marketing surveillance of the drug.

D054908	Extensively Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis	Tuberculosis resistant to ISONIAZID and RIFAMPIN and at least three of the six main classes of second-line drugs (AMINOGLYCOSIDES; polypeptide agents; FLUOROQUINOLONES; THIOAMIDES; CYCLOSERINE; and PARA-AMINOSALICYLIC ACID) as defined by the CDC.

D018088	Tuberculosis, Multidrug-Resistant	Tuberculosis resistant to chemotherapy with two or more ANTITUBERCULAR AGENTS, including at least ISONIAZID and RIFAMPICIN. The problem of resistance is particularly troublesome in tuberculous OPPORTUNISTIC INFECTIONS associated with HIV INFECTIONS. It requires the use of second line drugs which are more toxic than the first line regimens. TB with isolates that have developed further resistance to at least three of the six classes of second line drugs is defined as EXTENSIVELY DRUG-RESISTANT TUBERCULOSIS.
