The key target molecules were members of the ‘Big Four’ classes of antibiotics (macrolides, aminoglycosides, b-lactams and tetracyclines), naphthoquinone antibiotics and their related antibiotics. The Journal of Antibiotics (2013) 66, 107–129; doi:10.1038/ja.2012.126 Keywords: antibiotics; carbohydrates; enantiospecific synthesis; natural products; total synthesis INTRODUCTION In the present paper, the author introduces the dynamic as well as ‘Antibiotic’ was one of the greatest scientific discoveries in the 20th elegant parts of his total synthesis of big four antibiotics and related century and the masterpiece of the total synthesis of antibiotics and compounds, focusing not only on ‘art’ but also on the significance bioactive natural products is a display of beauty, achieving a status of of the total syntheses, and featuring his concept of ‘all begins from ‘art’ in organic chemistry. total synthesis’. Anybody can draw a picture, but pictures painted by famous painters such as van Gogh, Monet and Picasso are praised as ‘art’. At TOTAL SYNTHESIS OF MACROLIDE ANTIBIOTICS AND THE the present time, many chemists are able to synthesize natural RELATED MACROLACTONE ANTIBIOTICS products, even those having complicated structure, using advanced When a stone is thrown into a pond, several ripples are produced in organic chemistry. However, not all such synthesis is above the succession, gradually radiating outward from the point of entry until mundane and can thus be raised to the level of ‘art’. The author is of they finally cover the whole pond.

TDM is a fundamental tool for measuring the concentration of drugs that have a limited or highly toxic dose in different body fluids, such as blood, plasma, serum, and urine, among others. Using different techniques that allow for the pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) analysis of the drug, TDM can reduce the risks inherent in treatment. Among these techniques, nanotechnology focused on biosensors, which are relevant due to their versatility, sensitivity, specificity, and low cost. They provide results in real time, using an element for biological recognition coupled to a signal transducer. This review describes recent advances in the quantification of AB using biosensors with a focus on TDM as a fundamental aspect of personalized medicine. Keywords: biosensors; therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM), antibiotic; personalized medicine 1. Introduction The discovery of antibiotics (AB) ushered in a new era of progress in controlling bacterial infections in human health, agriculture, and livestock [1] However, the use of AB has been challenged due to the appearance of multi-resistant bacteria (MDR), which have increased significantly in recent years due to AB mismanagement and have become a global public health problem [2].

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

  • Microbiological Profile of Telithromycin, the First Ketolide Antimicrobial
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE Paperprovided by 48Elsevier Disc - Publisher Connector Microbiological profile of telithromycin, the first ketolide antimicrobial D. Felmingham GR Micro Ltd, London, UK ABSTRACT Telithromycin, the first of the ketolide antimicrobials, has been specifically designed to provide potent activity against common and atypical/intracellular or cell-associated respiratory pathogens, including those that are resistant to b-lactams and/or macrolide±lincosamide±streptograminB (MLSB) antimicrobials. Against Gram- positive cocci, telithromycin possesses more potent activity in vitro and in vivo than the macrolides clarithromycin and azithromycin. It retains its activity against erm-(MLSB)ormef-mediated macrolide-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae and Streptococcus pyogenes and against Staphylococcus aureus resistant to macrolides through inducible MLSB mechanisms. Telithromycin also possesses high activity against the Gram-negative pathogens Haemophilus influenzae and Moraxella catarrhalis, regardless of b-lactamase production. In vitro, it shows similar activity to azithromycin against H. influenzae, while in vivo its activity against H. influenzae is higher than that of azithromycin. Telithromycin's spectrum of activity also extends to the atypical, intracellular and cell-associated pathogens Legionella pneumophila, Mycoplasma pneumoniae and Chlamydia pneumoniae. In vitro, telithromycin does not induce MLSB resistance and it shows low potential to select for resistance or cross-resistance to other antimicrobials. These characteristics indicate that telithromycin will have an important clinical role in the Ahed empirical treatment of community-acquired respiratory tract infections.

  • In Vitro and in Vivo Study of Fosfomycin in Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus Septicaemia
    J. Ilyg., Camb. (1980), 96, 419-423 419 Printed in Great Britain In vitro and in vivo study of fosfomycin in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus septicaemia BY W. Y. LAU, C. H. TEOH-CHAN,* S. T. FAN AND K. F. LAU* Government Surgical Unit, Queen Mary Hospital, and * Department of Microbiology, University of Hong Kong {Received 15 October 19S5; accepted 12 December 19S5) SUMMARY Five hundred strains of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus were tested against various anti-staphylococcal agents. Vancomycin, fusidic acid and fosfo- mycin were found to be the most effective. Only 1 strain out of 500 was resistant to fosfomycin. Three patients with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus septicaemia were successfully treated by fosfomycin. We conclude that fosfomycin could be the drug of choice for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcns aureus infection. INTRODUCTION Outbreaks of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection are causing increasing problems in centres all over the world (Thompson & Wenzel, 1982; Editorial, 1983). There has been a gradual increase in the incidence of MRSA in our hospital in Hong Kong from 317 in 1982 (18-7% of all S. aureus isolated) to 511 in 1983 (32-7%) and 833 in 1984 (34-9%). In vitro, resistance of MRSA is often demonstrated to many anti-staphylococcal agents including the penicillins, first-generation cephalosporins, aminoglycosides, erythromycin, clindamycin and chloramphenicol (Peacock et al. 1981). Second- and third-generation cephalosporins also have poor activity in vitro (Thompson, Fisher & Wenzel, 1982) though many MRSA strains have been found to be susceptible to rifampicin, trimethoprim- sulphamethoxazole and fusidic acid (Watanakunakorn, 1983). However, clinical experience of treating serious staphylococeal infection with rifampicin and trimethoprim-siilphamethoxazole is limited (Guenther & Wenzel, 1984) and fully resistant organisms may emerge rapidly after exposure to fusidic acid in vitro and in vivo (Watanakunakorn, 1983).

Among the different antibiotic classes, tetracyclines and sulfonamides are two of the most used for veterinary proposals. Due to the fact that these compounds are poorly absorbed in the gut of animals, a significant proportion (up to ~90%) of them are excreted unchanged, thus reaching the environment mainly through the application of manures and slurries as fertilizers in agricultural fields. Once in the soil, antibiotics are subjected to a series of physicochemical and biological processes, which depend both on the antibiotic nature and soil characteristics. Adsorption/desorption to soil particles and degradation are the main processes that will affect the persistence, bioavailability, and environmental fate of these pollutants, thus determining their potential impacts and risks on human and ecological health.

    THE BIOGENESIS OF MITOCHONDRIA, V. CYTOPLASMIC INHERITANCE OF ERYTHROMYCIN RESISTANCE IN SACCHAROMYCES CEREVISIAE* BY ANTHONY W. LINNANE, G. W. SAUNDERS, ELLIOT B. GINGOLD, AND H. B. LUKINS BIOCHEMISTRY DEPARTMENT, MONASH UNIVERSITY, CLAYTON, VICTORIA, AUSTRALIA Communicated by David E. Green, December 26, 1967 The recognition and study of respiratory-deficient mutants of yeast has been of fundamental importance in contributing to our knowledge of the genetic control of the formation of mitochondria. From these studies it has been recognized that cytoplasmic genetic determinants as well as chromosomal genes are involved in the biogenesis of yeast mitochondria.1' 2 Following the recog- nition of the occurrence of mitochondrial DNA,3 4 attention has recently been focused on the relationship between mitochondrial DNA and the cytoplasmic determinant.' However, the information on this latter subject is limited and is derived from the study of a single class of mutant of this determinant, the re- spiratory-deficient cytoplasmic petite. This irreversible mutation is pheno- typically characterized by the inability of the cell to form a number of compo- nents of the respiratory system, including cytochromes a, a3, b, and c1.6 A clearer understanding of the role of cytoplasmic determinants in mitochondrial bio- genesis, could result from the characterization of new types of cytoplasmic mutations which do not result in such extensive biochemical changes. This would thus simplify the biochemical analyses as well as providing additional cytoplasmic markers to assist further genetic studies. We have reported that the antibiotics chloramphenicol, lincomycin, and the macrolides erythromycin, carbomycin, spiramycin, and oleandomycin selec- tively inhibit in vitro amino acid incorporation by yeast mitochondria, while not affecting the yeast cytoplasmic ribosomal system.7' 8 Further, these antibiotics do not affect the growth of S.
