X-ray crystallographic structure of a teixobactin analogue reveals key interactions of the teixobactin pharmacophore.

چکیده
The X-ray crystallographic structure of a truncated teixobactin analogue reveals hydrogen-bonding and hydrophobic interactions and a cavity that binds a chloride anion. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) assays against Gram-positive bacteria correlate the observed structure with antibiotic activity.

Synthesis and structure–activity relationship studies of teixobactin analogues
A new series of teixobactin analogues were synthesized via an oxidative cyclative cleavage approach using aryl hydrazide resin as the solid support. Structure–activity relationship studies revealed that the guanidine or amine group at position 10, the hydroxyl group of Ser7 residue and the NH proton of the N-terminal Phe1 residue are critical to the antibacterial activities, while side chain si...
متن کاملEfficient total syntheses and biological activities of two teixobactin analogues.
The discovery of the new antibiotic teixobactin has been timely in the race for unearthing novel antibiotics wherein the emergence of drug resistant bacteria poses a serious threat worldwide. Herein, we present the total syntheses and biological activities of two teixobactin analogues. This approach is simple, efficient and has several advantages: it uses commercially available building blocks ...
متن کاملDual Targeting of Cell Wall Precursors by Teixobactin Leads to Cell Lysis.
Teixobactin represents the first member of a newly discovered class of antibiotics that act through inhibition of cell wall synthesis. Teixobactin binds multiple bactoprenol-coupled cell wall precursors, inhibiting both peptidoglycan and teichoic acid synthesis. Here, we show that the impressive bactericidal activity of teixobactin is due to the synergistic inhibition of both targets, resulting...
متن کاملNano-structural Characterization of Post-annealed ZnO Thin Films by X-ray Diffraction and Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy
ZnO thin films were deposited on Si(400) substrates by e-beam evaporation technique, and then post-annealed at different annealing temperatures (200-800°C). Dependence of the crystallographic structure, nano-strain, chemical composition and surface physical Morphology of these layers on annealing temperature were studied. The crystallographic structure of films was studied using X-Ray Diffracti...
متن کاملInvestigation of the N-Terminus Amino Function of Arg10-Teixobactin.
Teixobactin is a recently described antimicrobial peptide that shows high activity against gram-positive bacteria as well as mycobacterium tuberculosis. Due to both its structure as a head-to-side chain cyclodepsipeptide and its activity, it has attracted the attention of several research groups. In this regard, a large number of analogs with substitutions in both the cycle and the tail has bee...
