Van-M-02, a novel glycopeptide, was revealed to exert potent activities against Gram-positive bacteria, including vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) and vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (VRSA). A crude assay system was then used to study the mode of action of Van-M-02 as a peptidoglycan synthesis model of both vancomycin-susceptible and -resistant strains. The results suggested that Van-M-02 inhibits the synthesis of lipid intermediates irrespective of their termini. This inhibitory activity may contribute to the anti-VRE and anti-VRSA activities observed.
Van-M-02 是一种新型糖肽,被证实对革兰氏阳性菌具有强大的活性,包括耐万古霉素肠球菌(VRE)和耐万古霉素金黄色葡萄球菌(VRSA)。然后使用粗筛检测系统研究了 Van-M-02 的作用模式,作为万古霉素敏感和耐药菌株的肽聚糖合成模型。结果表明,Van-M-02 抑制脂质中间体的合成,而与它们的末端无关。这种抑制活性可能有助于观察到的抗 VRE 和抗 VRSA 活性。
