Infectious and parasitic disease is estimated to be the second leading cause of death worldwide and is becoming increasingly problematic due to the steady rise in drug resistant pathogens.[1] The increase in resistance has also coincided with decreasing numbers of antibiotics brought to the market for the past few decades.[2] Naturally, it is paramount to global human health that new antibiotics are developed, particularly those with novel modes of action and/or unique chemical structures. Herein we present the discovery of sphaerimicin A, a sulfated hybrid polyketide-nucleoside that can be considered to fit both of these descriptors.Peptidoglycan cell wall plays an essential role in the viability of bacteria, and as a result the inhibition of its biosynthesis has proven to be revolutionary for treating bacterial infections.[3] Nearly all bacteria rely minimally on twelve conserved enzymes to install the cell wall, and intriguingly, the majority of these enzymes have yet to be successfully targeted by commercial antibiotics (Figure S1). One of this majority is bacterial phospho-N-acetylmuramyl-pentapeptide translocase (translocase I, annotated as MraY), which initiates the lipid cycle of peptidoglycan biosynthesis by catalyzing the transfer of phospho-N-acetylmuramic acid-pentapeptide from UDP-N-acetylmuramic acid-pentapeptide to undecaprenyl phosphate, releasing UMP to generate undecaprenyl-disphospho-N-acetylmuramic acid-pentapeptide, or Lipid I. Within the past decade and shortly after connecting the mraY gene product with the translocase activity,[4] several potent, natural product inhibitors have been discovered using activity-based screens.[5] Most of the inhibitors are structurally categorized as uridine-based nucleosides wherein the canonical ribofuranose is modified at the C-5′ position via a CC bond to generate a so-called highcarbon sugar nucleoside.[5] These high-carbon sugar nucleosides are further divided into subgroups based on the core scaffold, which includes those containing the nonproteinogenic amino acid 5′-C-glycyluridine (GlyU) exemplified by 1–5 or those with a uridine-5′-carboxamide (CarU) core exemplified by 6–8 (Figure 1).[6]
