Pharmacotherapy for Bordetella pertussis infection. II. A synthesis of clinical sciences

Nevio Cimolai

Summary: Despite numerous studies on laboratory susceptibility testing for Bordetella pertussis, assessments of treatment have fallen behind in quality and quantity. With the emergence of high-level macrolide resistance in some regions, alternative antibiotics need to be defined for pertussis, with more clinical studies required to establish bacteriological-clinical correlates for outcome.

Inhibition of Indigoidine Synthesis as a High-Throughput Colourimetric Screen for Antibiotics Targeting the Essential Mycobacterium tuberculosis Phosphopantetheinyl Transferase PptT

Alistair S. Brown, Jeremy G. Owen, James Jung, Edward N. Baker, David F. Ackerley

Summary: This study presents a high throughput colorimetric screen for identifying inhibitors of the essential phosphopantetheinyl transferase PptT in Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The screen monitors the activation of the non-ribosomal peptide synthetase BpsA to synthesize indigoidine in vitro, using unadulterated coenzyme A. The method is sensitive, capable of distinguishing weak from strong inhibitors, and can be used to quantify inhibition levels and generate consistent EC50 data.

An in-solution snapshot of SARS-COV-2 main protease maturation process and inhibition

Gabriela Dias Noske, Yun Song, Rafaela Sachetto Fernandes, Rod Chalk, Haitem Elmassoudi, Lizbe Koekemoer, C. David J. Owen, Tarick V. El-Baba, Carol Robinson, Glaucius Oliva, Andre Schutzer Godoy

Summary: The main protease of SARS-CoV-2, M-pro, is responsible for cleaving the viral polyprotein and is crucial for enzyme dimerization and activity. N-terminal cleavage is not critical for dimerization, and different types of inhibitors can affect the oligomeric states. This study provides insights into the maturation process of M-pro and how it can be targeted by inhibitors.

Whole-Genome Sequencing Snapshot of Clinically Relevant Carbapenem-Resistant Gram-Negative Bacteria from Wastewater in Serbia

Ivana Cirkovic, Bruno H. Muller, Ana Janjusevic, Patrick Mollon, Valerie Istier, Caroline Mirande-Meunier, Snezana Brkic

Summary: This study investigated the occurrence and characteristics of carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria (CR-GNB) in wastewater in Belgrade. All isolates were found to be multidrug-resistant, with K. pneumoniae (bla(CTX-M-15)/bla(OXA-48)) being the most common. Additionally, acquired resistance to colistin was detected in some isolates. Further research is needed to track the occurrence and distribution of these bacteria and mitigate their threat.

Specific Inhibition of VanZ-Mediated Resistance to Lipoglycopeptide Antibiotics

Vishma Pratap Sur, Aninda Mazumdar, Vladimir Vimberg, Tommaso Stefani, Ladislav Androvic, Lucie Kracikova, Richard Laga, Zdenek Kamenik, Katerina Komrskova

Summary: Teicoplanin, a low cytotoxicity antibiotic, is often used in medical practice to treat severe infections caused by gram-positive bacteria. However, the presence of a protein called VanZ can compromise the effectiveness of Teicoplanin. This study predicted the structure of VanZ and identified a new ligand, G3K, which specifically inhibits VanZ-mediated resistance to Teicoplanin.

Summary: In this study, researchers developed a potent DYRK2 inhibitor, C17, and used it as a chemical probe to investigate the function of DYRK2. They discovered that DYRK2 phosphorylates 4E-BP1 and STIM1, and C17 effectively suppresses these phosphorylation reactions. These findings expand our understanding of DYRK2 and provide a valuable tool for further research.

Agnieszka A. Pochopien, Bertrand Beckert, Sergo Kasvandik, Otto Berninghausen, Roland Beckmann, Tanel Tenson, Daniel N. Wilson

Summary: The Gcn pathway is highly conserved in eukaryotes, with Gcn1 serving as an essential effector protein for Gcn2 kinase to regulate global translation in response to stress. The structure of Gcn1 interacting with stalled and colliding ribosomes was revealed through cryo-electron microscopy, shedding light on the activation of Gcn2. This study provides important insights into the molecular mechanism of Gcn pathway activation and its implications in ribosome-associated quality control pathways.

Summary: The study identified 37 compounds that bind to the SARS-CoV-2 main protease through a high-throughput x-ray crystallographic screen of two repurposing drug libraries. Among these compounds, one peptidomimetic and six nonpeptidic compounds showed antiviral activity in cell-based viral reduction assays at nontoxic concentrations. The identification of two allosteric binding sites presents potential targets for drug development against SARS-CoV-2.

RqcH and RqcP catalyze processive poly-alanine synthesis in a reconstituted ribosome-associated quality control system

Hiraku Takada, Caillan Crowe-McAuliffe, Christine Polte, Zhanna Yu Sidorova, Victoriia Murina, Gemma C. Atkinson, Andrey L. Konevega, Zoya Ignatova, Daniel N. Wilson, Vasili Hauryliuk

Summary: This study reveals the responsibility of RqcH in tRNA(Ala) selection within the RQC pathway, while RqcP lacks tRNA specificity and does not play a specific role in RQC. The ribosomal protein uL11 is crucial for the recruitment of RqcH to the 50S subunit, and B. subtilis lacking uL11 are deficient in RQC.

Scaling the U-net: segmentation of biodegradable bone implants in high-resolution synchrotron radiation microtomograms

Ivo M. Baltruschat, Hanna Cwieka, Diana Kruger, Berit Zeller-Plumhoff, Frank Schlunzen, Regine Willumeit-Roemer, Julian Moosmann, Philipp Heuser

Summary: Highly accurate segmentation of large 3D volumes, especially for challenging applications like the segmentation of synchrotron radiation microtomograms (SR mu CT) at high-resolution, requires reliable methods such as the scaling of U-net with model hyper-parameters. Through systematic evaluation, it is observed that a compound scaling of the U-net with multi-axes prediction fusing yields the highest IoU for the degradation layer. Ultimately, quantitative analysis shows that the parameters calculated with model segmentation deviated less from high quality results compared to semi-automatic segmentation methods.

Summary: The heat shock protein 15 (Hsp15) in bacteria has different binding sites and mechanisms compared to its homolog RqcP in Bacillus subtilis. Our study found that Hsp15 in Escherichia coli binds to the 50S subunit upon heat shock, stabilizes the peptidyl-tRNA in the P-site, and promotes the release of aberrant nascent polypeptide chains.

Structural basis for translation inhibition by the glycosylated drosocin peptide

Timm O. Koller, Martino Morici, Max Berger, Haaris A. Safdari, Deepti S. Lele, Bertrand Beckert, Kanwal J. Kaur, Daniel N. Wilson

Summary: The antimicrobial peptide drosocin, produced by Drosophila species, is O-glycosylated at threonine 11, and this glycosylation not only affects cellular uptake but also interacts with its target, the ribosome. Cryogenic electron microscopy structures reveal that glycosylated drosocin binds to the polypeptide exit tunnel of the ribosome, interfering with translation termination by trapping RF1 and inducing conformational changes. The glycosylation of drosocin enables multiple interactions with U2609 of 23S rRNA, disrupting a canonical base pair with A752. These findings provide important insights into the interaction of glycosylated drosocin with the ribosome and have implications for the development of antimicrobial drugs.
