Specifications
Target Information
Trimethoprim is an antimicrobial agent that targets bacterial dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR), an enzyme crucial for the synthesis of tetrahydrofolate. Tetrahydrofolate is essential for the production of nucleic acids and proteins. By inhibiting DHFR, trimethoprim disrupts the bacterial cell's ability to synthesize these vital components, leading to impaired growth and replication. This antibiotic is effective against a broad spectrum of bacteria, including Gram-positive and Gram-negative pathogens. Its specific interaction with DHFR makes it a valuable target for antibody development to enhance its efficacy and specificity in treating bacterial infections.
