Crystal structures of the complexes between vancomycin and cell-wall precursor analogs.

Abstract:

:The crystal structures of three vancomycin complexes with two vancomycin-sensitive cell-wall precursor analogs (diacetyl-Lys-D-Ala-D-Ala and acetyl-D-Ala-D-Ala) and a vancomycin-resistant cell-wall precursor analog (diacetyl-Lys-D-Ala-D-lactate) were determined at atomic resolutions of 1.80 A, 1.07 A, and 0.93 A, respectively. These structures not only reconfirm the "back-to-back" dimerization of vancomycin monomers and the ligand-binding scheme proposed by previous experiments but also show important structural features of strategies for the generation of new glycopeptide antibiotics. These structural features involve a water-mediated antibiotic-ligand interaction and supramolecular structures such as "side-by-side" arranged dimer-to-dimer structures, in addition to ligand-mediated and "face-to-face" arranged dimer-to-dimer structures. In the diacetyl-Lys-D-Ala-D-lactate complex, the interatomic O...O distance between the carbonyl oxygen of the fourth residue of the antibiotic backbone and the ester oxygen of the D-lactate moiety of the ligand is clearly longer than the corresponding N-H...O hydrogen-bonding distance observed in the two other complexes due to electrostatic repulsion. In addition, two neighboring hydrogen bonds are concomitantly lengthened. These observations provide, at least in part, a molecular basis for the reduced antibacterial activity of vancomycin toward vancomycin-resistant bacteria with cell-wall precursors terminating in -D-Ala-D-lactate.
