Ribosome protection mechanism, by which the drug is actively removed from the ribosome, has recently become of great interest. The ATP-binding cassette F (ABC-F) family proteins confer resistance to a number of clinically relevant antibiotics targeting the ribosome PTC/NPET region (20). These proteins are collectively referred to as antibiotic resistance (ARE) ABC-F proteins (21). Unlike other ARE ABC family members that are shown to actively pump drugs out of the cells, ARE ABC-F proteins lack the trans- membrane domain characteristic to transporters and are believed to confer antibiotic resistance via ribosomal protection mechanism by interacting with the ribosome and displacing the bound drug (17, 20, 22–24). ARE ABC-F proteins have been classified into three groups based on antibiotic resistance: (i) Msr homologs (macrolides and streptogramin B), (ii) Vga/Lsa/Sal homologs (lincosamides, pleuromutilins, and streptogramin A), and (iii) OptrA homologs (phenicols and oxazolidinones) (20) (SI Appendix,Fig.S1). Notably, these proteins compose two ATP-binding domains connected by a linker of various lengths, which appears to be crucial for the effi- ciency and specificity of antibiotic resistance (20). However, an understanding of the molecular mechanism of how ARE ABC-F proteins interact with ribosomes to mediate antibiotic resistance requires a high-resolution structure of the complex. Here we report the cryo-EM structure of the ARE ABC-F protein MsrE bound to the bacterial ribosome at 3.6-Å resolution. Note that the Msr homologs (divided into four classes: A, C, D, and E) have the longest domain linkers among the ARE ABC-F members (SI Appendix,Fig.S1). Furthermore, we have previously identified a Pseudomonas aeruginosa clinical isolate carrying the msrE gene obtained through horizontal gene transfer (NCBI ac- Fig. 1.

Abstract: Streptogramins are potent antibiotics against numerous highly resistant pathogens and therefore are used in last-resort human therapy. These antibiotics are formed of both A- and B-group compounds named pristinamycins that differ in their basic primary structures. Although pristina- mycin IIB is among the most interesting antibiotics in this family, it presents numerous problems related to its chemical structure, such as instability at most pH levels, weak solubility in water, and resistance by bacteria. As a response to the need for developing new antimicrobial agents, we have designed a new analog of pristinamycin IIB, based most importantly on the introduction of fluorine atoms. We conjectured indeed that the introduced modifications may solve the above-mentioned problems exhibited by pristinamycin IIB. Our multistep synthetic approach relies on few key reac- tions, namely a Wittig reaction, a Grubbs reaction, and dihydroxy, -difluoro API (Advanced Phar- maceutical Intermediate) synthesis Keywords: streptogramins; pristinamycins IIB; fluorine Citation: Chebieb, A.; Ziani-Cherif, C.

  • A New Enzyme Which Modifies Pristinamycin Iia Francois Le
    VOL. XXX NO. 8 THE JOURNAL OF ANTIBIOTICS 665 PLASMID-MEDIATED PRISTINAMYCIN RESISTANCE PAC IIA: A NEW ENZYME WHICH MODIFIES PRISTINAMYCIN IIA FRANCOIS LE GOFFIC, MARIE-LOUISE CAPMAU, DIDIER BONNET, CLAUDE CERCEAU, CLAUDE SOUSSY*, ALAIN DUBLANCHET and J. DUVAL* Centre d'Etude et de Recherche de Chimie Organique Appliquee, Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique, 94320 Thiais, France *Service de Bacteriologie , Centre Hospitalier Henri-Mondor, 94010 Creteil, France (Received for publication January 17, 1977) A wild strain of Staphylococcus aureus which inactivates a wide variety of antibiotics has been found to inactivate pristinamycin IIA, an antistaphylococcal antibiotic. This pheno- menon has been demonstrated to be plasmid mediated. The plasmid directs the biosynthesis of an acetyltransferase which is able to O-acetylate the drug. We propose to call the new enzyme PAC (IIA): Pristinamycin acetyltransferase. The pristinamycins belong to the group of "mikamycins" which are a complex of synergistic com- pounds2) identical in structure with ostreogrycin. These compounds are produced by Streptomyces pristinaespiralis and are widely used against staphylococcal infections. Pristinamycin IIA (N. W. 526) is a macrocyclic lactone containing pyrrolidine and oxazole rings with structure as shown in Fig. Ia. It is identical with mikamycin A, ostreogrycin A, streptogramin A, vernamycin A, PA II4A1 and virginiamycin M. Pristinamycin IIB (M. W. 528), ostreogrycin G or virginiamycin M2 has the structure with the 4-2, 3 bond saturated (Fig. lb). The group B antibiotic is a depsipeptide (Fig. 2) and includes pristinamycin IA, mikamycin B, streptogramin B, PA II4B and ostreogrycin B. Other derivatives of this B group are also present in the fermentation broth of the Streptomyces pristinaespiralis producing strain.

  • Synercid I.V
    NDA 50-747/S-008 NDA 50-748/S-008 Page 3 Synercid® I.V. (quinupristin and dalfopristin for injection) One of Synercid’s approved indications is for the treatment of patients with serious or life-threatening infections associated with vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VREF) bacteremia. Synercid has been approved for marketing in the United States for this indication under FDA’s accelerated approval regulations that allow marketing of products for use in life-threatening conditions when other therapies are not available. Approval of drugs for marketing under these regulations is based upon a demonstrated effect on a surrogate endpoint that is likely to predict clinical benefit. Approval of this indication is based upon Synercid’s ability to clear VREF from the bloodstream, with clearance of bacteremia considered to be a surrogate endpoint. There are no results from well-controlled clinical studies that confirm the validity of this surrogate marker. However, a study to verify the clinical benefit of therapy with Synercid on traditional clinical endpoints (such as cure of the underlying infection) is presently underway. DESCRIPTION Synercid® (quinupristin and dalfopristin powder for injection) I.V., a streptogramin antibacterial agent for intravenous administration, is a sterile lyophilized formulation of two semisynthetic pristinamycin derivatives, quinupristin (derived from pristinamycin I) and dalfopristin (derived from pristinamycin IIA) in the ratio of 30:70 (w/w). Quinupristin is a white to very slightly yellow, hygroscopic powder. It is a combination of three peptide macrolactones. The main component of quinupristin (>88.0%) has the following chemical name: N­ [(6R,9S,10R,13S,15aS,18R,22S,24aS)-22-[p-(dimethylamino)benzyl]-6-ethyldocosahydro-10,23-dimethyl­ 5,8,12,15,17,21,24-heptaoxo-13-phenyl-18-[[(3S)-3-quinuclidinylthio] methyl]-12H-pyrido[2,1-f]pyrrolo-[2,1­ l][1,4,7,10,13,16] oxapentaazacyclononadecin-9-yl]-3-hydroxypicolinamide.

Drug allergy to antibiotics may occur in the form of immediate or non-immediate (delayed) hypersensitivity reactions. Immediate reactions are usual- ly IgE-mediated whereas non-immediate hypersensitivity reactions are usually non-IgE or T-cell mediated. The clinical manifestations of antibiotic allergy may be cutaneous, organ-specific (e.g., blood dyscracias, hepatitis, interstitial nephritis), systemic (e.g., anaphylaxis, drug induced hypersen- sitivity syndrome) or various combinations of these. Severe cutaneous adverse reactions manifesting as Stevens Johnson syndrome or toxic epider- mal necrolysis (TEN) may be potentially life-threatening. The management of antibiotic allergy begins with the identification of the putative antibiot- ic from a detailed and accurate drug history, complemented by validated in-vivo and in-vitro allergological tests. This will facilitate avoidance of the putative antibiotic through patient education, use of drug alert cards, and electronic medical records with in-built drug allergy/adverse drug reaction prescription and dispensing checks. Knowledge of the evidence for specific antibiotic cross-reactivities is also important in patient education. Apart from withdrawal of the putative antibiotic, immunomodulatory agents like high-dose intravenous immunoglobulins may have a role in TEN.

One of the key approaches to tackling an- timicrobial resistance is clinical, livestock, and environmental surveillance applying methods capable of effectively identifying antimicrobial non-susceptibility as well as genes that promote resistance. Current clinical laboratory practices involve conventional culture-based antibiotic susceptibility testing (AST) methods, taking over 24 h to find out which medication should be prescribed to treat the infection. Although there are techniques that provide rapid resistance detection, it is necessary to have new tools that are easy to operate, are robust, sensitive, specific, and inexpensive.
