  • Allosteric Drug Transport Mechanism of Multidrug Transporter Acrb
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-021-24151-3 OPEN Allosteric drug transport mechanism of multidrug transporter AcrB ✉ Heng-Keat Tam 1,3,4 , Wuen Ee Foong 1,4, Christine Oswald1,2, Andrea Herrmann1, Hui Zeng1 & ✉ Klaas M. Pos 1 Gram-negative bacteria maintain an intrinsic resistance mechanism against entry of noxious compounds by utilizing highly efficient efflux pumps. The E. coli AcrAB-TolC drug efflux pump + 1234567890():,; contains the inner membrane H /drug antiporter AcrB comprising three functionally inter- dependent protomers, cycling consecutively through the loose (L), tight (T) and open (O) state during cooperative catalysis. Here, we present 13 X-ray structures of AcrB in inter- mediate states of the transport cycle. Structure-based mutational analysis combined with drug susceptibility assays indicate that drugs are guided through dedicated transport chan- nels toward the drug binding pockets. A co-structure obtained in the combined presence of erythromycin, linezolid, oxacillin and fusidic acid shows binding of fusidic acid deeply inside the T protomer transmembrane domain. Thiol cross-link substrate protection assays indicate that this transmembrane domain-binding site can also accommodate oxacillin or novobiocin but not erythromycin or linezolid. AcrB-mediated drug transport is suggested to be allos- terically modulated in presence of multiple drugs. 1 Institute of Biochemistry, Goethe-University Frankfurt, Frankfurt am Main, Germany. 2 Sosei Heptares, Steinmetz Building, Granta Park, Great Abington, Cambridge, UK. 3Present

    Essential Medicines List (EML) 2019 Application for the inclusion of imipenem/cilastatin, meropenem and amoxicillin/clavulanic acid in the WHO Model List of Essential Medicines, as reserve second-line drugs for the treatment of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (complementary lists of anti-tuberculosis drugs for use in adults and children) General items 1. Summary statement of the proposal for inclusion, change or deletion This application concerns the updating of the forthcoming WHO Model List of Essential Medicines (EML) and WHO Model List of Essential Medicines for Children (EMLc) to include the following medicines: 1) Imipenem/cilastatin (Imp-Cln) to the main list but NOT the children’s list (it is already mentioned on both lists as an option in section 6.2.1 Beta Lactam medicines) 2) Meropenem (Mpm) to both the main and the children’s lists (it is already on the list as treatment for meningitis in section 6.2.1 Beta Lactam medicines) 3) Clavulanic acid to both the main and the children’s lists (it is already listed as amoxicillin/clavulanic acid (Amx-Clv), the only commercially available preparation of clavulanic acid, in section 6.2.1 Beta Lactam medicines) This application makes reference to amendments recommended in particular to section 6.2.4 Antituberculosis medicines in the latest editions of both the main EML (20th list) and the EMLc (6th list) released in 2017 (1),(2). On the basis of the most recent Guideline Development Group advising WHO on the revision of its guidelines for the treatment of multidrug- or rifampicin-resistant (MDR/RR-TB)(3), the applicant considers that the three agents concerned be viewed as essential medicines for these forms of TB in countries.

Both linezolid-resistant S. aureus (LRSA) and coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) strains have been collected worldwide. Two isolates carrying linezolid resistance genes were recovered from laryngological patients and characterized by determining their antimicrobial resistance patterns and using molecular methods such as spa typing, MLST, SCCmec typing, detection of virulence genes and ica operon expression, and analysis of antimicrobial resistance determinants. Both isolates were multidrug resistant, including resistance to methicillin. The S. aureus strain was identified as ST- 398/t4474/SCCmec IVe, harboring adhesin, hemolysin genes, and the ica operon. The S. haemolyticus strain was identified as ST-42/mecA-positive and harbored hemolysin genes.

Danish copyright law restricts all other use without written permission of the publisher. Exception is granted for short excerpts for review purposes. iv Foreword The first edition of the Antibiotic Use Guidelines for Companion Animal Practice was published in autumn of 2012. The aim of the guidelines was to prevent increased antibiotic resistance. A questionnaire circulated to Danish veterinarians in 2015 (Jessen et al., DVT 10, 2016) indicated that the guidelines were well received, and particularly that active users had followed the recommendations. Despite a positive reception and the results of this survey, the actual quantity of antibiotics used is probably a better indicator of the effect of the first guidelines. Chapter two of these updated guidelines therefore details the pattern of developments in antibiotic use, as reported in DANMAP 2016 (www.danmap.org).

  • New Β-Lactamase Inhibitor Combinations: Options for Treatment; Challenges for Testing
    MEDICAL/SCIENTIFIC AffAIRS BULLETIN New β-lactamase Inhibitor Combinations: Options for Treatment; Challenges for Testing Background The β-lactam class of antimicrobial agents has played a crucial role in the treatment of infectious diseases since the discovery of penicillin, but β–lactamases (enzymes produced by the bacteria that can hydrolyze the β-lactam core of the antibiotic) have provided an ever expanding threat to their successful use. Over a thousand β-lactamases have been described. They can be divided into classes based on their molecular structure (Classes A, B, C and D) or their function (e.g., penicillinase, oxacillinase, extended-spectrum activity, or carbapenemase activity).1 While the first approach to addressing the problem ofβ -lactamases was to develop β-lactamase stable β-lactam antibiotics, such as extended-spectrum cephalosporins, another strategy that has emerged is to combine existing β-lactam antibiotics with β-lactamase inhibitors. Key β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitor combinations that have been used widely for over a decade include amoxicillin/clavulanic acid, ampicillin/sulbactam, and pipercillin/tazobactam. The continued use of β-lactams has been threatened by the emergence and spread of extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) and more recently by carbapenemases. The global spread of carbapenemase-producing organisms (CPOs) including Enterobacteriaceae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Acinetobacter baumannii, limits the use of all β-lactam agents, including extended-spectrum cephalosporins (e.g., cefotaxime, ceftriaxone, and ceftazidime) and the carbapenems (doripenem, ertapenem, imipenem, and meropenem). This has led to international concern and calls to action, including encouraging the development of new antimicrobial agents, enhancing infection prevention, and strengthening surveillance systems.
