8-Amino-7-oxopelargonate synthase catalyzes the first committed step of biotin biosynthesis in micro-organisms and plants. Because inhibitors of this pathway might lead to antibacterials or herbicides, we have undertaken an inhibition study on 8-amino-7-oxopelargonate synthase using six different compounds. d-Alanine, the
Penicillin acylase from E. coli (EC 3.5.1.11) was found to hydrolyze N-phenylacetylated 1-aminoethylphosphonic acid and its esters. The enzyme preferentially converts the R-form of the substrates: the ratios of the bimolecular rate constants of penicillin acylasecatalyzed hydrolysis of R- and
Inhibition of alanine racemase from the Gram-positive bacterium Bacillus stearothermophilus by (1-aminoethyl) phosphonic acid (Ala-P) proceeds via a two-step reaction pathway in which reactivation occurs very slowly. In order to determine the mechanism of inhibition, we have recorded low-temperature, solid-state

Phosphonodipeptides and phosphonooligopeptides based on L- and D-(1-aminoethyl)phosphonic acids L-Ala(P) and D-Ala(P) and (aminomethyl)phosphonic acid Gly(P) at the acid terminus have been synthesized and investigated as antibacterial agents, which owe their activity to the inhibition of bacterial cell-wall biosynthesis.
