Project Summary/Abstract An alarming number of Gram-negative nosocomial pathogens have acquired resistance to nearly all currently available antibiotics, making it very difficult to treat patients effectively. Moreover, in the last decade, only a handful of new antimicrobial agents have been introduced, and these have mostly targeted drug-resistant Gram-positive pathogens such as methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) and vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE). The goal of this proposal is to develop a high-throughput screening assay to discover and validate small molecule inhibitors of LpxH, an essential enzyme in the lipid A biosynthetic pathway, as novel antibiotics for the treatment of infections caused by multidrug-resistant Gram-negative pathogens.

项目概要/摘要 数量惊人的革兰氏阴性医院病原体已对几乎所有目前的病原体产生了抗药性 可用的抗生素，使得有效治疗患者变得非常困难。而且，在过去十年中，只有 已经推出了少数新的抗菌药物，这些药物大多针对耐药性 革兰氏阳性病原体，例如耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌 (MRSA) 和耐万古霉素肠球菌 （VRE）。该提案的目标是开发一种高通量筛选方法来发现和验证小分子 LpxH（脂质 A 生物合成途径中的一种必需酶）的分子抑制剂，作为新型抗生素 治疗由多重耐药革兰氏阴性病原体引起的感染。
