Linear Analogues of the Lipopeptide Battacin With Potent In Vitro Activity Against S. aureus

Hugh D Glossop et al. Adv Protein Chem Struct Biol. 2018.

Abstract

Eight linear analogues of the lipopeptide battacin were evaluated for their antibacterial activity against the Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus. Of this library, the enantiomeric lipopeptide analogue 9.4 exhibited nanomolar inhibitory activity (MIC=200nmol) against S. aureus. Furthermore, this lipopeptide was resilient toward degradation conditions when exposed to rat serum proteases for up to 8h.

Keywords: Lipopeptide; Resistance; S. aureus; Serum stability.
