چکیده

MM45289 (A82846A, eremomycin), a glycopeptide antibiotic of the vancomycin type, was confirmed to have improved antibacterial activity over vancomycin. However its affinity (Ka) for the target site peptide mimetic diacetyl-L-lysyl-D-alanyl-D-alanine (DALAA)was 23-fold lower. Concentrations of DALAArequired to reverse the antibacterial activity of MM45289 were in the order of 10 to 50-fold higher than for vancomycin. These results have implications for both mode of action studies and mechanism-basedscreening strategies for this class of antibiotic.

Antistaphylococcal activity of TD-1792, a multivalent glycopeptide-cephalosporin antibiotic.

TD-1792 is a new multivalent glycopeptide-cephalosporin antibiotic with potent activity against Gram-positive bacteria. The in vitro activity of TD-1792 was tested against 527 Staphylococcus aureus isolates, including multidrug-resistant isolates. TD-1792 was highly active against methicillin-susceptible S. aureus (MIC(90), 0.015 μg/ml), methicillin-resistant S. aureus, and heterogeneous vancom...

In vitro activity of TD-1792, a multivalent glycopeptide-cephalosporin antibiotic, against 377 strains of anaerobic bacteria and 34 strains of Corynebacterium species.

TD-1792 is a multivalent glycopeptide-cephalosporin heterodimer antibiotic with potent activity against Gram-positive bacteria. We tested TD-1792 against 377 anaerobes and 34 strains of Corynebacterium species. Against nearly all Gram-positive strains, TD-1792 had an MIC₉₀ of 0.25 μg/ml and was typically 3 to 7 dilutions more active than vancomycin and daptomycin.

Genome Sequence of Streptomyces toyocaensis NRRL 15009, Producer of the Glycopeptide Antibiotic A47934

Here we report the draft genome sequence of Streptomyces toyocaensis strain NRRL 15009 which is the producer of the glycopeptide antibiotic A47934. The genome sequence is predicted to harbor a total of 26 secondary metabolite biosynthetic gene clusters including the A47934 cluster.

Assembling the glycopeptide antibiotic scaffold: The biosynthesis of A47934 from Streptomyces toyocaensis NRRL15009.

The glycopeptide antibiotics vancomycin and teicoplanin are vital components of modern anti-infective chemotherapy exhibiting outstanding activity against Gram-positive pathogens including members of the genera Streptococcus, Staphylococcus, and Enterococcus. These antibiotics also provide fascinating examples of the chemical and associated biosynthetic complexity exploitable in the synthesis o...

In-vitro and in-vivo antibacterial activity of BI 397, a new semi-synthetic glycopeptide antibiotic.

BI 397 (formerly A-A-1) is a semisynthetic derivative of the teicoplanin-like glycopeptide A40926. It was more active in vitro against staphylococci (including some teicoplanin-resistant strains) than teicoplanin and vancomycin. Against streptococci (including penicillin-resistant strains) BI 397 has activity comparable with that of teicoplanin and better than vancomycin. BI 397, when administe...
