Compounds were synthesized from commercial sources in our laboratory.

The N. gonorrhoeae reference strains were obtained from the WHO reference strain panel for global quality assurance and quality control of gonococcal AMR testing^{21 (link),41 (link)}. The rest of N. gonorrhoeae strains used were clinical isolates obtained from the CDC (Supplementary Table 1). The commensal vaginal bacterial strains were obtained from the Biodefense and Emerging Infections Research Resources Repository (BEI Resources) (Supplementary Table 2).
