Abstract
A type of surface imprinting over magnetic Fe3 O4 nanoparticles utilizing erythromycin-A as a template for use in the separation and recovery of erythromycin was developed and investigated. As the intermolecular forces play a key role in the performance of imprinted materials, differential scanning calorimetry, and (1) H NMR spectroscopy was employed to evaluate the interactions between erythromycin and the functional monomer β-cyclodextrin. To synthesize the surface imprinted polymers, magnetic Fe3 O4 nanoparticles, the core materials, were modified with a free radical initiator to initialize polymerization in a "grafting from" manner. Then using acryloyl-modified β-cyclodextrin as the functional monomer and ethyleneglycol dimethacrylate as the cross-linker, thin erythromycin-imprinted films were fabricated by the radical-induced graft copolymerization of monomers on the surface of the Fe3 O4 nanoparticles. Selectivity experiments showed that the erythromycin-A-imprinted materials had recognition ability toward erythromycin derivatives. Finally, these magnetic molecularly imprinted particles were successfully used for the separation and enrichment of erythromycin from the mother liquor. The recovery, detected by high-performance liquid chromatography and differential pulse voltammetry, approached 97%. The combination of the specific selectivity of the imprinted material and the magnetic separation provided a powerful tool that is simple, flexible, and selective for the separation and recovery of erythromycin.

Abstract
Macrolides are an important class of antibiotics that target the bacterial ribosome. Computer simulations of macrolides are limited as specific force field parameters have not been previously developed for them. Here, we determine CHARMM-compatible force field parameters for erythromycin, azithromycin, and telithromycin, using the force field toolkit (ffTK) plugin in VMD. Because of their large size, novel approaches for parametrizing them had to be developed. Two methods for determining partial atomic charges, from interactions with TIP3P water and from the electrostatic potential, as well as several approaches for fitting the dihedral parameters were tested. The performance of the different parameter sets was evaluated by molecular dynamics simulations of the macrolides in ribosome, with a distinct improvement in maintenance of key interactions observed after refinement of the initial parameters. Based on the results of the macrolide tests, recommended procedures for parametrizing very large molecules using ffTK are given.

Abstract
Roxithromycin is a poorly soluble antibacterial drug. The aim of this study was to prepare and characterize an amorphous form of roxithromycin. The amorphous form was prepared by desolvation of its chloroform solvate, and by quench cooling a melt of the crystalline monohydrated solid. The X-ray powder diffraction pattern of the desolvated chloroform solvate was indistinguishable from that of the glass prepared by melting, which indicated that it was amorphous. The roxithromycin glass was determined to be a fragile glass, but due to its high Kauzmann temperature (approximately 8°C), it should remain fairly stable upon refrigeration or even at room temperature. It was also determined that this glass remains stable in the presence of moisture with no indication of crystallization.

Abstract
The three-dimensional structures of oleandomycin (1) and its derivatives oleandomycin-9-oxime (2) and 10,11-anhydrooleandomycin (3) were determined in different solvents by the combined use of NMR and molecular modeling methods. The experimental NMR data were compared with the results of molecular modeling and known crystal structures of the related molecules. It was shown that the dominant conformation of the lactone ring is the folded-out conformation with some amounts of the folded-in one depending on the solvent and temperature, while desosamine and cladinose sugars adopt the usual chair conformations. Modeling calculations provided evidence for conformational changes in the upper lactone region as well. Saturation transfer difference (STD) NMR experiments have provided information on the binding epitopes of 1-3 in complexes with E. coli ribosomes. The obtained molecular surfaces in close contact with ribosomes were compared with recently available 3D structures of the related macrolide-ribosome complexes, and the observed differences were discussed. The knowledge gained from this study can serve as a platform for the design of novel macrolides with an improved biological profile.

Abstract
A novel series of C(12) ethyl erythromycin derivatives have been discovered which exhibit in vitro and in vivo potency against key respiratory pathogens, including those resistant to erythromycin. The C(12) modification involves replacing the natural C(12) methyl group in the erythromycin core with an ethyl group via chemical synthesis. From the C(12) ethyl macrolide core, a series of C(12) ethyl ketolides were prepared and tested for antibacterial activity against a panel of relevant clinical isolates. Several compounds were found to be potent against macrolide-sensitive and -resistant bacteria, whether resistance was due to ribosome methylation (erm) or efflux (mef). In particular, the C(12) ethyl ketolides 4k,4s,4q,4m, and 4t showed a similar antimicrobial spectrum and comparable activity to the commercial ketolide telithromycin. The in vivo efficacy of several C(12) ethyl ketolides was demonstrated in a mouse infection model with Streptococcus pneumoniae as pathogen.

From the C12 vinyl macrolide core, a series of C12 vinyl ketolides was prepared. Several compounds were found to be potent against macrolide-sensitive and -resistant bacteria. The C12 vinyl ketolides 6j and 6k showed a similar antimicrobial spectrum and comparable activity to the commercial ketolide telithromycin. However, the pharmacokinetic profiles of C12 vinyl ketolides 6j and 6k in rats differ from that of telithromycin by having higher lung-to-plasma ratios, larger volumes of distribution, and longer half-lives. These pharmacokinetic differences have a pharmacodynamic effect as both 6j and 6k exhibited better in vivo efficacy than telithromycin in rat lung infection models against Streptococcus pneumoniae and Haemophilus influenzae.

Abstract
In an effort to explore the contribution of the sugar constituents of pharmaceutically relevant glycosylated natural products, chemists have developed glycosylation methods that are amenable to the generation of libraries of analogues with a broad array of glycosidic attachments. Recently, two complementary glycorandomization strategies have been described, namely, neoglycorandomization, a chemical approach based on a one-step sugar ligation reaction that does not require any prior sugar protection or activation, and chemoenzymatic glycorandomization, a biocatalytic approach that relies on the substrate promiscuity of enzymes to activate and attach sugars to natural products. Since both methods require reducing sugars, this review first highlights recent advances in monosaccharide generation and then follows with an overview of recent progress in the development of neoglycorandomization and chemoenzymatic glycorandomization.

Abstract
The tRNA(Phe)-bound conformation of the aminoglycoside neamine, a member of the neomycin B family, has been investigated by transferred NOE experiments in aqueous solution. This is the first time that the bioactive conformation of an RNA-bound aminoglycoside has been determined by this method. In buffers without divalent Mg(2+) ions, a high degree of electrostatically driven unspecific binding of aminoglycosides to the RNA was observed. Careful optimization of experimental conditions yielded buffer conditions optimized for cryo-probe NMR experiments. In particular, addition of Mg(2+) ions to the solutions was necessary to reduce the amount of unspecific binding as monitored by one-dimensional NMR and surface plasmon resonance experiments. CD spectroscopy was used to probe the effect of aminoglycosides and buffer conditions on the double helical content of tRNA(Phe). Finally the tRNA(Phe)-bound conformation of neamine was determined by trNOE build-up curves and compared with the previously reported crystal structure of neomycin B complexed to this RNA. Although the aminoglycoside in the crystal structure contains several configurational errors, the overall shape of the crystallographically determined RNA-bound structure is identical to the RNA-bound conformation defined by the NMR experiments. Therefore, the crystal structure has been refined by trNOE data. This is particularly important in the context of aminoglycosides being discussed as lead structures for the development of new anti-RNA drugs.

Abstract
Conformations of the 14-membered macrolide antibiotic oleandomycin and its 8-methylene-9-oxime derivative were determined in various solvents. The experimental NMR data--coupling constants and NOE contacts--were compared with the results of molecular modelling--molecular mechanics calculations and molecular dynamics simulations. The conformational changes, on the right-hand side of the 14-membered ring, affected mostly the 3JH2,H3 values and NOE crosspeaks H3 or H4 to H11. Oleandomycin was found to be present predominantly in the C3-C5 folded-in conformations in DMSO-d6 solution, whereas in buffered D2O, acetone-d6 and CDCl3, there was a mixture of folded-in and folded-out conformational families. The predominant conformation of the 8-methylene-oleandomycin-9-oxime derivative in solution was a folded-out one although different amounts of folded-in conformation were also present depending on the solvent. Oleandrose and desosamine sugar moieties adopted the usual and expected chair conformation. The conformation around the glycosidic bonds, governing the relative orientation of sugars vs. the lactone ring, showed a certain flexibility within two conformationally close families. We believe that by combining the experimental NMR data and the molecular modelling techniques, as reported in this paper, we have made significant progress in understanding the conformational behaviour and properties of macrolides. Our belief is based on our own current studies on oleandomycins as well as on the previously reported results and best practices concerning other macrolides. A rational for macrolide conformational studies and advances in methodology has been suggested accordingly.

Abstract
[reaction: see text] A general strategy toward macrocyclic compounds using multicomponent reaction (MCR) chemistry, e.g., Passerini and Ugi variants, and ring-closing metathesis (RCM) is introduced. The corresponding bifunctional isocyanides carboxylic acids bearing a terminal olefin are easy to prepare from the corresponding commercially available starting materials. Advantageously, this strategy allows fast access to a diverse conformational space of natural product-like macrocycles and could thus be of interest in the discovery of novel bioactive agents.

Abstract
In a cell-free system derived from Escherichia coli, it is shown that clarithromycin and roxithromycin, like their parent compound erythromycin, do not inhibit the puromycin reaction (i.e., the peptide bond formation between puromycin and AcPhe-tRNA bound at the P-site of 70S ribosomes programmed with heteropolymeric mRNA). Nevertheless, all three antibiotics compete for binding on the ribosome with tylosin, a 16-membered ring macrolide that behaves as a slow-binding, slowly reversible inhibitor of peptidyltransferase. The mutually exclusive binding of these macrolides to ribosomes is also corroborated by the fact that they protect overlapping sites in domain V of 23S rRNA from chemical modification by dimethyl sulfate. From this competition effect, detailed kinetic analysis revealed that roxithromycin or clarithromycin (A), like erythromycin, reacts rapidly with AcPhe-tRNA.MF-mRNA x 70S ribosomal complex (C) to form the encounter complex CA which is then slowly isomerized to a more tight complex, termed C*A. The value of the overall dissociation constant, K, encompassing both steps of macrolide interaction with complex C, is 36 nM for erythromycin, 20 nM for roxithromycin, and 8 nM for clarithromycin. Because the off-rate constant of C*A complex does not significantly differ among the three macrolides, the superiority of clarithromycin as an inhibitor of translation in E. coli cells and many Gram-positive bacteria may be correlated with its greater rate of association with ribosomes.

Abstract
Crystal structures of the Haloarcula marismortui large ribosomal subunit complexed with the 16-membered macrolide antibiotics carbomycin A, spiramycin, and tylosin and a 15-membered macrolide, azithromycin, show that they bind in the polypeptide exit tunnel adjacent to the peptidyl transferase center. Their location suggests that they inhibit protein synthesis by blocking the egress of nascent polypeptides. The saccharide branch attached to C5 of the lactone rings extends toward the peptidyl transferase center, and the isobutyrate extension of the carbomycin A disaccharide overlaps the A-site. Unexpectedly, a reversible covalent bond forms between the ethylaldehyde substituent at the C6 position of the 16-membered macrolides and the N6 of A2103 (A2062, E. coli). Mutations in 23S rRNA that result in clinical resistance render the binding site less complementary to macrolides.

Abstract
Two antibiotic resistance peptides, the E-peptide (MRLFV) and the K-peptide (MRFFV) conferring macrolide and ketolide resistance, respectively, were studied in the complex state with bacterial Staphylococcus aureus ribosomes. Interactions of antibiotic resistance peptides with ribosomes were investigated using two-dimensional transferred nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy (TRNOESY), suggesting that the peptide-ribosome interaction was associated with the low-affinity binding level. K-Peptide displayed a significantly better response in TRNOEs NMR experiments, in agreement with a better overall antibiotic activity of ketolides. This difference highlights a mimetic effect displayed by the E- and K-peptides. This study shows that conformation plays an essential role for the affinity binding site and, thus, for the resistance mechanism. Specific conformations were preferred in the bound state; their superimposition exhibited a similar cyclic peptidyl chain, while the side chain region varies. The F4 phenyl moiety in E-peptide has moved out of the turn region compared to its folding in the ketolide resistance peptide. In the K-peptide binding surface, the F4 aromatic chain is maintained by stacking with the guanidyl group of the R2 residue providing a particular hydrophobic and globular fragment, which may be important for the ketolide resistance peptide mode of action. Additionally, T(2) (CPMG) measurements were used to characterize equilibrium binding of antibiotic resistance peptides to bacterial ribosomes. The results bring to the fore E- and K-peptide competition with antibiotics for binding to the ribosomes. Their specific interaction and their competitive effects reveal a novel aspect of interaction of resistance peptides with ribosomes and suggest new insights about their mode of action. The resistance mechanism may imply two steps, a competitive effect of the resistance peptide for the macrolide (or ketolide) binding site followed by a "bottle brush" effect in which the drug and the peptide are driven out their binding site on the ribosome.

Abstract
A novel series of erythromycin derivatives has been discovered with potent activity against key respiratory pathogens, including those resistant to erythromycin. These compounds are characterized by having an aryl group tethered to the C-6 position of the erythronolide skeleton. Extensive structural modification of the C-6 moiety led to the discovery of several promising compounds with potent activity against both mef- and erm-mediated resistant Streptoccoccus pneumoniae. Preliminary mechanistic studies indicated that the new macrolides are potent protein synthesis inhibitors, which interact with methylated ribosomes isolated from resistant organisms. In experimental animal models, these compounds exhibited excellent in vivo efficacy and balanced pharmacokinetic profiles.

Abstract
The new class of antibiotics called ketolides is endowed with remarkable antibacterial activity against macrolide-resistant strains. Further modifications of the 3 keto-macrolactone backbone led to 11,12-hydrazonocarbamate ketolides with an imidazolyl pyridine chain: the file-leader of ketolide class, HMR 3647 (telithromycin), and its N-bis-demethyl-derivative, RU 72366. The potency of HMR 3647 is higher than that of RU 72366. Stereospecific 1H and 13C resonance assignments of HMR 3647 and RU 72366 have been determined and have allowed a detailed quantitative conformational analysis of the uncomplexed form of the molecules. The comparative conformation of HMR 3647 in solution and its N-bis-demethyl-derivative in D2O has been carried out using different heteronuclear correlation experiments in conjunction with nuclear Overhauser effect experiments and in particular long-range 3J(CH) coupling constants and using molecular dynamics (MD) methods. The study of ketolide ribosome interaction has been investigated using two-dimensional transferred nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy (TRNOESY). The database of ribosome-bound ketolide structures has been used to compare the structure(s) of ketolide in ribosome-ketolide complexes with the conformational preferences of free ketolides and to highlight the significant differences between HMR 3647 and RU 72366. A comparison of the conformations bound to ribosome was made with those of other previously studied ketolide (RU 004) and macrolides and would explain the remarkable potencies of HMR 3647 in inhibiting protein synthesis.

Abstract
Two important lincosamide antibiotics, lincomycin and clindamycin were studied in the complex state with the bacterial ribosome after a conformational analysis by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy and molecular modelling of the unbound molecules. Lincosamide-ribosome interactions were investigated using two-dimensional transferred nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy (TRNOESY), resulting in a bound structure compatible with the experimental NMR data. The results compared with the conformational analysis of the substrates in solution indicate that specific conformations are preferred in the bound state. Clindamycin, the more bioactive antibiotic studied, displayed a stronger NMR response than lincomycin showing that in lincosamide-ribosome interactions, a low affinity binding level is associated to the tight binding one and is related to biological activity. This study shows that conformation plays an essential role for the low affinity binding site. Superimposition of lincosamide, macrolide and ketolide bound structures exhibited conformational similarities in a particular fragment which is in agreement with a hypothesis of partial overlapping lincosamide and macrolide binding sites.

Abstract
A new structurally distinct class of 14-membered-ring macrolides is characterized by a keto-function instead of the cladinose sugar, well-known for its fragility even in weakly acidic media. This new class called ketolides is endowed with remarkable antibacterial activity against macrolide-resistant strains. A complete assignment of the 1H and 13C NMR spectra of RU 004 in deuteriochloroform, methanol-d4 and D2O has been made using different two-dimensional (2D) chemical-shift correlation methods. The study of ketolide-ribosome interaction has been investigated using 2D transferred nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy (TRNOESY). A comparison of the conformations in solution and bound to ribosomes was made with those of previous macrolides. This study can highlight some of the significant differences between RU 004 and other antibiotics.
