Abstract

See full text

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.
