[PMID: 36195750 DOI: 10.1038/s41429-022-00567-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/07/2022] [Revised: 09/08/2022] [Accepted: 09/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/08/2022]
Abstract
Two new chloropyrroles, designated catellatopyrroles A (1) and B (2), along with 2-(2'-hydroxybenzoyl)pyrrole (3), were isolated from a culture extract of an actinomycete of the genus Catellatospora. The structures of 1-3 were elucidated through interpretation of NMR and MS data. Compounds 1 and 2 are the first chloropyrroles substituted by an aliphatic acyl group at the 5-position. Compounds 1-3 promoted root elongation of germinated lettuce seeds at 1-10 μM. While all compounds inhibited the growth of Gram-positive bacteria, activity against Gram-negative bacterium Rhizobium radiobacter and yeasts Candida albicans and Saccharomyces cerevisiae was varied. Compounds 1 and 2 were moderately cytotoxic against P388 cells.

Hansen MH, Stegmann E, Cryle MJ. Beyond vancomycin: recent advances in the modification, reengineering, production and discovery of improved glycopeptide antibiotics to tackle multidrug-resistant bacteria. Curr Opin Biotechnol 2022; 77:102767. [PMID: 35933924 DOI: 10.1016/j.copbio.2022.102767] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/29/2022] [Revised: 07/01/2022] [Accepted: 07/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
Glycopeptide antibiotics (GPAs), which include vancomycin and teicoplanin, are important last-resort antibiotics used to treat multidrug-resistant Gram-positive bacterial infections. Whilst second-generation GPAs - generated through chemical modification of natural GPAs - have proven successful, the emergence of GPA resistance has underlined the need to develop new members of this compound class. Significant recent advances have been made in GPA research, including gaining an in-depth understanding of their biosynthesis, improving titre in production strains, developing new derivatives via novel chemical modifications and identifying a new mode of action for structurally diverse type-V GPAs. Taken together, these advances demonstrate significant untapped potential for the further development of GPAs to tackle the growing threat of multidrug-resistant bacteria.
