Abstract
RNA recognition by natural aminoglycoside antibiotics depends on the 2-deoxystreptamine (2-DOS) scaffold which participates in specific hydrogen bonds with the ribosomal decoding-site target. Three-dimensional structure information has been used for the design of azepane-monoglycosides, building blocks for novel antibiotics in which 2-DOS is replaced by a heterocyclic scaffold. Azepane-glycosides showed target binding and translation inhibition in the low micromolar range and inhibited growth of Staphylococcus aureus, including aminoglycoside-resistant strains.Entities:
