    Abstract Acinetobacter baumannii is a Gram-negative bacterium commonly found in soil and water that can cause human infections of the blood, lungs, and urinary tract. Of particular concern is its prevalence in health-care settings where it can survive on surfaces and shared equipment for extended periods of time. The capsular polysaccharide surrounding the organism is known to be the major contributor to virulence. The structure of the K57 capsular polysaccharide produced by A. baumannii isolate BAL_212 from Vietnam was recently shown to contain the rare sugar 4-acetamido-4,6-dideoxy-d-glucose. Three enzymes are required for its biosynthesis, one of which is encoded by the gene H6W49_RS17300 and referred to as VioB, a putative N-acetyltransferase. Here, we describe a combined structural and functional analysis of VioB. Kinetic analyses show that the enzyme does, indeed, function on dTDP-4-amino-4,6-dideoxy-d-glucose with a catalytic efficiency of 3.9 x 10

    Abstract The sugar, 2,3-diacetamido-2,3-dideoxy-d-mannuronic acid, was first identified ∼40 years ago in the O-antigen of Pseudomonas aeruginosa O:3,a,d. Since then, it has been observed on the O-antigens of various pathogenic Gram-negative bacteria including Bordetella pertussis, Escherichia albertii, and Pseudomonas mediterranea. Previous studies have established that five enzymes are required for its biosynthesis beginning with uridine dinucleotide (UDP)-N-acetyl-d-glucosamine (UDP-GlcNAc). The final step in the pathway is catalyzed by a 2-epimerase, which utilizes UDP-2,3-diacetamido-2,3-dideoxy-d-glucuronic acid as its substrate. Curious as to whether this biochemical pathway is found in extreme thermophiles, we examined the published genome sequence for Thermus thermophilus HB27 and identified five ORFs that could possibly encode for the required enzymes. The focus of this investigation is on the ORF WP_011172736, which we demonstrate encodes for a 2-epimerase. For this investigation, ten high resolution X-ray crystallographic structures were determined to resolutions of 2.3 Å or higher. The models have revealed the manner in which the 2-epimerase anchors its UDP-sugar substrate as well as its UDP-sugar product into the active site. In addition, this study reveals for the first time the manner in which any sugar 2-epimerase can simultaneously bind UDP-sugars in both the active site and the allosteric binding region. We have also demonstrated that the T. thermophilus enzyme is allosterically regulated by UDP-GlcNAc. Whereas the sugar 2-epimerases that function on UDP-GlcNAc have been the focus of past biochemical and structural analyses, this is the first detailed investigation of a 2-epimerase that specifically utilizes UDP-2,3-diacetamido-2,3-dideoxy-d-glucuronic acid as its substrate.

    Abstract The bacterial metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) catalyze the inactivation of β-lactam antibiotics. Identifying novel pharmacophores remains crucial for the clinical development of additional MBL inhibitors. Previously, 1-hydroxypyridine-2(1H)-thione-6-carboxylic acid, hereafter referred to as 1,2-HPT-6-COOH, was reported as a low cytotoxic nanomolar β-lactamase inhibitor of Verona-integron-encoded metallo-β-lactamase 2, capable of rescuing β-lactam antibiotic activity. In this study, we explore its exact mechanism of inhibition and the extent of its activity through structural characterization of its binding to New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase 4 (NDM-4) and its inhibitory activity against both NDM-1 and NDM-4. Of all the structure-validated MBL inhibitors available, 1,2-HPT-6-COOH is the first discovered compound capable of forming an octahedral coordination sphere with Zn2 of the binuclear metal center. This unexpected mechanism of action provides important insight for the further optimization of 1,2-HPT-6-COOH and the identification of additional pharmacophores for MBL inhibition.
