Dimers of vancomycin (Van), linked by a rigid metal complex, Pt(en)(H(2)O)(2), exhibit potent activities (MIC approximately 0.8 mug/mL, approximately 720 times more potent than that of Van itself) against vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE). The result suggests that combining metal complexation and receptor/ligand interaction offers a useful method to construct multivalent inhibitors.
通过刚性金属配合物[Pt(en)(H₂O)₂]²⁺连接的万古霉素(Van)二聚体,对耐万古霉素肠球菌(VRE)表现出强大的活性(最低抑菌浓度约为0.8μg/mL,比Van本身强约720倍)。该结果表明,将金属络合与受体/配体相互作用相结合为构建多价抑制剂提供了一种有用的方法。
