Antibacterial activity of alkyl gallates is a combination of direct targeting of FtsZ and permeabilization of bacterial membranes
Alkyl gallates are compounds with reported antibacterial activity. One of the modes of action is binding of the alkyl gallates to the bacterial membrane and interference with membrane integrity. However, alkyl gallates also cause cell elongation and disruption of cell division in the important plant pathogen Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri, suggesting that cell division proteins may be targeted ...
متن کاملAntimicrobial agents targeting bacterial cell walls and cell membranes.
Antimicrobial agents that target the bacterial cell wall or cell membrane have been used effectively for the past 70 years. Among the agents that inhibit bacterial cell wall synthesis, the beta-lactam antibiotics have emerged into broad-spectrum agents that inhibit most pathogenic bacteria, but are now being threatened by the rapid spread of drug-inactivating beta-lactamases. Glycopeptides stil...
متن کامل6''-Thioether tobramycin analogues: towards selective targeting of bacterial membranes.
Decades of widespread clinical use of the bacterial ribosome A-site-targeting aminoglycosides (AGs) enhanced the evolution of resistance to these antibiotics and reduced their clinical efficacy. Three modes of action lead to bacterial resistance to AGs: reduction in the intracellular concentration of the antibiotics by efflux pump proteins or through reduced membrane permeability; structural mo...
متن کاملAntibacterial Resistance via Gyrb24 Targeting
In Escherichia coli, the gyrase enzyme is composed of two subunits: A and B [1]. The A subunit (97 k Da) interacts and relieves DNA super coils through its active site (tyrosine) during DNA replication. The B subunit contains the ATP as active site required to release the energy in the attached ATP molecule and provides the free energy to the reaction (DNA super coiling) accomplished by the gyr...
متن کاملA Thiazole Orange Derivative Targeting the Bacterial Protein FtsZ Shows Potent Antibacterial Activity
The prevalence of multidrug resistance among clinically significant bacteria calls for the urgent development of new antibiotics with novel mechanisms of action. In this study, a new small molecule exhibiting excellent inhibition of bacterial cell division with potent antibacterial activity was discovered through cell-based screening. The compound exhibits a broad spectrum of bactericidal activ...
