49. Bacterial Inhibition by Metabolite Analogues
The production of growth-inhibiting agents by suitably modifying the structures of growth-promoting substances has been shown to be feasible by previous investigations (Mcllwain [1940; 1941a]: considered -as parts 1 and 2 of the present series). In these cases evidence was obtained which showed that the inhibitory analogues produced their effects by limiting the organism's use of the correspond...
متن کاملThe inhibition and selectivity of bacterial topoisomerases by BMS-284756 and its analogues.
Analogues of BMS-284756, a novel des-F(6)-quinolone, were synthesized and evaluated in order to determine the effects of modification of substituents on in vitro target inhibition. BMS-340281 (stereoisomer of BMS-284756), BMS-340280 (C-6 fluorinated analogue of BMS-284756), BMS-340278 (C-8-H derivative), BMS-433366 (C-8 methoxy analogue) and fluoroquinolone comparators were evaluated for antiba...
متن کاملInhibition of rumen methanogenesis by methane analogues.
Extremely low concentrations of chloroform and carbon tetrachloride and somewhat larger concentrations of methylene chloride inhibited the formation of methane by the rumen microbiota in the presence or absence of added substrate. The accumulation of hydrogen at these low concentrations indicates a selective inhibition of methanogenesis. Presumably, these inhibitors affect one or more of the re...
متن کاملMARSI: metabolite analogues for rational strain improvement
Summary: Metabolite analogues (MAs) mimic the structure of native metabolites, can competitively inhibit their utilization in enzymatic reactions, and are commonly used as selection tools for isolating desirable mutants of industrial microorganisms. Genome-scale metabolic models representing all biochemical reactions in an organism can be used to predict effects of MAs on cellular phenotypes. H...
متن کاملInhibition of Cytokinesis by a Lipid Metabolite, Psychosine
Although a number of cellular components of cytokinesis have been identified, little is known about the detailed mechanisms underlying this process. Here, we report that the lipid metabolite psychosine (galactosylsphingosine), derived from galactosylceramide, induced formation of multinuclear cells from a variety of nonadherent and adherent cells due to inhibition of cytokinesis. When psychosin...
