The design, synthesis and antibiotic activities of the modified carboxylate binding pocket (D-O-E ring) of vancomycin (1) were summarized in this short account. The preliminary Structure-Activity Relationship (SAR) studies indicated that both the structure ...
The aim of this study was to assess the most relevant time scales of antibiotics concentration variations at the sewage treatment plant (STP) inlet and to create a model for the simulation of short-term concentration variations. During one year six antibio ...
Type II topoisomerase (topoII) is a metalloenzyme targeted by clinical antibiotics and anticancer agents. Here, we integrate existing structural data with molecular simulation and propose a model for the yet uncharacterized structure of the reactant state ...
The genus Mycobacterium comprises slow-growing species with generation times ranging from hours to weeks. The protracted incubation time before colonies appear on solid culture medium can result in overgrowth by faster-growing microorganisms. To prevent co ...
Background: Metabolic reconstructions (MRs) are common denominators in systems biology and represent biochemical, genetic, and genomic (BiGG) knowledge-bases for target organisms by capturing currently available information in a consistent, structured mann ...
Objectives To develop a high throughput screening-compatible assay for the selection of species-specific antibiotics that do not harm human cells. Methods Staphylococcus aureus and human reporter cells continuously generating a fluorescence signal were com ...
The power of two! A natural product hybrid (see structure) composed of a siderophore and an antibiotic separated by a poly(ethylene glycol) linker enables the preparation of antimicrobial and cell-resistant surfaces by a simple dip-and-rinse procedure. The ...
The authors have performed a computational study of different protomeric states of the methionine aminopeptidase active site using a combined quantum-mech./mol. mech. simulation approach. The aim of this study was to clarify the native protonation state of ...
The first biomimetic total synthesis of the iron chelator anachelin H isolated from the cyanobacterium Anabaena cylindrica is reported. A first generation approach delivered one enantiomeric series of the polyketide fragment. Comparison of the 1H NMR data ...
The first members of the tiacumicin family of antibiotics, encompassing more than 40 compounds, were isolated in 1975. Structurally, the core aglycon is an 18-membered macrolactone having two conjugated diene units, one isolated double bond, 5 stereogenic ...
