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.
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

The values of the kinetic parameters that govern the interactions between the Streptomyces K15 DD-peptidase and beta-lactam compounds were determined by measuring the inactivating effect that these compounds exert on the transpeptidase activity of the enzyme and, in the case

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
