Review of Platensimycin and Platencin: Inhibitors of β-Ketoacyl-acyl Carrier Protein (ACP) Synthase III (FabH).
Platensimycin and platencin were successively discovered from the strain Streptomyces platensis through systematic screening. These natural products have been defined as promising agents for fighting multidrug resistance in bacteria by targeting type II fatty acid synthesis with slightly different mechanisms. Bioactivity studies have shown that platensimycin and platencin offer great potential ...
متن کاملSynthesis of potent inhibitors of β-ketoacyl-acyl carrier protein synthase III as potential antimicrobial agents.
Mycobacterium tuberculosis FabH, an essential enzyme in the mycolic acid biosynthetic pathway, is an attractive target for novel anti-tubercolosis agents. Structure-based design and synthesis of 1-(4-carboxybutyl)-4-(4-(substituted benzyloxy)phenyl)-1H-pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid derivatives 7a-h, a subset of eight potential FabH inhibitors, is described in this paper. The Vilsmeier-Haack reactio...
متن کاملAcyl Carrier Protein Cyanylation Delivers a Ketoacyl Synthase-Carrier Protein Cross-Link.
Acyl carrier proteins (ACPs) are central hubs in polyketide and fatty acid biosynthetic pathways, but the fast motions of the ACP's phosphopantetheine (Ppant) arm make its conformational dynamics difficult to capture using traditional spectroscopic approaches. Here we report that converting the terminal thiol of Escherichia coli ACP's Ppant arm into a thiocyanate activates this site to form a s...
متن کاملP-Ketoacyl-Acyl Carrier Protein Synthetase
/3-Ketoacyl-acyl carrier protein (ACP) synthetase catalyzes the condensation reaction of fatty acid synthesis in Escherichia coli. The homogeneous enzyme reacts with hexanoylCoA to form hexanoyl-enzyme which was isolated and characterized. Hexanoyl-enzyme contains 2 mol of hexanoate/mol of enzyme (molecular weight 66,000); it is labile at alkaline pH, and it reacts with neutral hydroxylamine to...
متن کاملSite-Directed Mutagenesis, Expression and Biological Activity of E. coli 5-Enolpyruvylshikimate 3-Phosphate Synthase Gene
Site-directed mutagenesis (SDM) as a powerful technique was used to change two important and conserved amino acids in 5-enolpyruvylshikimate 3- phosphate synthase (EPSPS) gene of E. coli. The mutations changed glycine 96 to alanine and alanine 183 to threonine. These two amino acids are very important for intraction of the wide spectrum herbicide, glyphosate, to EPSP synthase enzymes. By design...
