Background: Leucyl-tRNA synthetase (LeuRS) is one of the essential enzymes belonging to the family of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (aaRSs), which executes the translation of genetic code by catalyzing the specific attachment of amino acids to their cognate tRNAs. This process is very crucial for survival of micro-organism and thus the inhibition of LeuRS offered a novel and lucrative target for developing new antimicrobials.
