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

Charge matters! The charge state significantly influences the conformation and the binding energy between vancomycin antibiotic and bacterial cell-wall analogue peptides (see figure). Surface-induced dissociation (SID) studies provide a quantitative comparison between the stabilities of different charge states of the

The binding affinity of 4, which incorporates a methylene (CH2) in place of the key linking amide of Ac2-l-Lys-d-Ala-d-Ala, for vancomycin was compared with that of Ac2-l-Lys-d-Ala-d-Ala (3) and Ac2-l-Lys-d-Ala-d-Lac (5). The vancomycin affinity for 4 was approximately 10-fold less
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

Basic carboxamides of teicoplanin A2 (CTA) and its aglycon (TD) are prepared by condensation of the 63-carboxyl function of these antibiotics with linear or branched polyamines. The antimicrobial activities of some of the resulting compounds were better than those of
