Aminoglycoside-modifying enzymes modify the structures of aminoglycoside antibiotics, rendering them ineffective, a process which confersresistance to the antibiotic. Electrostatic interactions (ion pairing and hydrogen bonding) are believed to be significant for both substrate recognition and catalysis by these enzymes. Regiospecific syntheses of seven distinct deaminated analogues of neamine and kanamycin A, two aminoglycoside antibiotics, are described. Each of these compounds would have impaired interaction with a different subsite of the enzyme active sites. All seven molecules were shown to be exceedingly poor substrates for two aminoglycoside-modifying enzymes, aminoglycoside 3'-phosphotransferases types la and Ha. The energetic contribution of interactions of the active-site functions with each of these amines on stabilization of the transition-state specieshas been evaluated to be in the range of 6—11 kcaVmol, the largest energy contribution recorded in the literature for such interactions. The biological activities of these analogues were the same against the resistant organisms harboring aminoglycoside 3'-phosphotransferases types la and Ha as those against the background strain without the resistant enzymes. Thus, these compounds are virtually unmodified by those enzymes in vivo. The principles described here should be of general interest for circumvention of resistance to other antibiotics, by redesigning the structures to minimize electrostatic interactions with their corresponding resistance enzymes.Advances in the development of novel antibiotics are being reversed by bacterial populations exhibiting multiple resistance to various antibiotics. The resistance problem has rendered a number of antibiotics obsolete. Treatment of clinical infections caused by such resistant organisms presents a serious challenge. 1 This phenomenon necessitates an intensive search for new antibiotics with novel mechanisms of action. Such undertakings are both time-consuming and financially prohibitive but remain indispensable if we are to provide an acceptable level of care in the immediate future. Meanwhile, it may beless costly in time and money to employ strategiesto circumvent existing bacterial resistance mechanisms and thereby to restore usefulness to antibacterials that have become compromised by resistance. Aminoglycoside antibiotics have been used in the clinic for almost five decades. This prolonged clinical use has resulted in effective selection of resistance to this family of antibacterial agents. Presently, resistance to these agents is widespread among pathogens worldwide. 2 The primary mechanism for resistance to aminoglycosides is the bacterial acquisition of enzymes which modify this family of antibiotics by acetyltrans-ferase, adenylyltransferase, and phosphotransferase activities. 2 Among these enzyme families, aminoglycoside 3'-phosphotransferases [APH (3') s], of which seven isozymes are known, are widely represented. 2 These enzymes catalyze transfer of the y-phosphoryl group of ATP to the 3'-hydroxyl of many aminoglycosides, such as kanamycins, neomycins, neamine, paromamine, butirosin, ribostamycin, lividomycin, gentamicin
