Basic carboxamides of teicoplanin A2 (CTA) and its aglycon (TD) are prepared by condensation of the 63-carboxyl function of these antibiotics with linear or branched polyamines. The antimicrobial activities of some of the resulting compounds were better than those of

The binding affinity of 4, which incorporates a methylene (CH2) in place of the key linking amide of Ac2-l-Lys-d-Ala-d-Ala, for vancomycin was compared with that of Ac2-l-Lys-d-Ala-d-Ala (3) and Ac2-l-Lys-d-Ala-d-Lac (5). The vancomycin affinity for 4 was approximately 10-fold less

Electrospray ionization (ESI) is extensively used in the analysis of biological compounds; yet some fundamental properties of this technique are not completely understood. It is widely recognized that care should be exercised when noncovalent complexes are being studied by ESI

A series of ristocetin analogues with modifications (OH, C=O, C=NOH, NCOCH3) at the C-1' amino group was synthesized and found to possess antibacterial activity against gram-positive bacteria and to bind to Ac2-Lys-D-Ala-D-Ala, a model for the antibiotic's site of action.

The membrane-bound, 26 000-Mr penicillin-binding protein of Streptomyces K15 has been isolated in the form of an effective, penicillin-sensitive D-alanyl-D-alanine-cleaving peptidase exhibiting high transpeptidase activity (greater than 95%) and very low carboxy-peptidase activity (less than 5%). The penicillin-binding protein/transpeptidase can
