General description

Globomycin is a cyclic peptide antibiotic, which inhibits the growth of enteric Gram-negative bacteria through cell wall synthesis inhibition.

Application


  • Globomycin, a new peptide antibiotic with spheroplast-forming activity. I. Taxonomy of producing organisms and fermentation.: This study explores the taxonomy of the producing organisms of Globomycin and details the fermentation processes involved. This antibiotic shows spheroplast-forming activity, indicating its potential application in targeting bacterial cell wall synthesis (Inukai et al., 1978).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Globomycin was found to inhibit LspA, a lipoprotein signal peptidase. It eliminates the maturation of pro-lipoproteins by inhibition of the enzyme that converts pro-lipoprotein to lipoprotein, acting as a substrate analog of the signal sequence in the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria.

Haemophilus ducreyi, the causative agent of chancroid, is highly resistant to the complement-mediated bactericidal activity of normal human serum (NHS). Previously, we identified DsrA (for ducreyi serum resistance A), a major factor required for expression of the serum resistance phenotype

Cell surface lipoproteins are important for the full virulence of several bacterial pathogens, including Streptococcus pneumoniae. Processing of prolipoproteins seems to be conserved among different bacterial species, and requires type II signal peptidase (Lsp) mediated cleavage of the N-terminal signal
