Crystal structure at 2.16 Å resolution of full-length
Escherichia coli
penicillin-binding protein 1b (PBP1b) in complex with its inhibitor moenomycin, is provided. 3D structures of amino acid residues involved in moenomycin binding and transglycosylation activity are identified. Binding sites for peptidoglycan synthesis inhibitors comprising amino acid residues from transglycosylase (TG), UvrB domain 2 homolog (UB2H) and transmembrane (TM) domains of PBP1b are identified at atomic level resolution. Rational drug design, based on the atomic coordinates, are disclosed. Methods for screening for antibiotics using anisotropic binding and transglycosylase inhibitor assays and novel antibiotics based on the screening assays are provided.
提供了Escherichia coli全长青霉素结合蛋白1b(PBP1b)与其抑制剂莫诺霉素复合物的2.16Å分辨率的晶体结构。确定了参与莫诺霉素结合和转醣基化活性的氨基酸残基的三维结构。确定了由PBP1b的转醣酶(TG)、UvrB域2同源物(UB2H)和跨膜(TM)结构中的氨基酸残基组成的肽聚糖合成抑制剂的结合位点。基于原子坐标的合理药物设计被揭示。提供了使用各向异性结合和转醣酶抑制剂测定的筛选抗生素的方法和基于筛选测定的新型抗生素。
