General description

Chemical structure: aminoglycoside

Application

Sisomicin is an aminoglycoside antibiotic isolated from Micromonopora inyoensis. It is effective against most strains of Klebsiellk spp., Escherichia coli, P. aeruginosa, Enterobacter and Proteus spp.. It is a potential treatment for conjunctiva . It is used in disk and tube dilution sensitivity test.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Sisomicin interferes with protein synthesis at the level of functional ribosome assembly. The mechanism is similar to that of gentamycin. Sisomicin closely resembles gentamicin but is more effective against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and indole-positive Proteus.

Aminoglycoside 66-40C, an unprecedented 16-membered bis-azadiene macrocyclic natural product isolated from the Micromonospora producer of the antibiotic sisomicin, was synthesized following a biomimetic strategy which definitively established its origin as arising from a remarkably selective non-enzymatic macro-dimerization.

Reports of Enterobacteriaceae resistant to all commonly used antimicrobial agents, including β-lactams, fluoroquinolones and aminoglycosides, are increasing in hospitals worldwide. The activity of ACHN-490, a next-generation aminoglycoside, was examined against clinical isolates of Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae from hospitals
