摘要: 日益严峻的细菌感染威胁使得新型抗生素的研发迫在眉睫.本文报道了一种新型多黏菌素类似物PL-082,其N端脂肪链和首个氨基酸经过了结构改造.与仅抗革兰氏阴性菌的传统多黏菌素不同,PL-082展现出对革兰氏阳性菌和阴性菌均有效的广谱抗菌活性.通过核磁共振(NMR)和分子动力学模拟,我们揭示了PL-082与POPG磷脂(革兰氏阳性菌细胞膜的主要成分)之间的强相互作用,这正是其获得抗革兰氏阳性菌独特活性的分子机制.本研究不仅阐明了新抗生素PL-082的抗菌机制,更为开发强效广谱抗生素提供了新思路.

Abstract: The increasing threat of bacterial infections has created an urgent need for novel antibiotics. Herein, we report a novel polymyxin analog, PL-082, modified at its N-terminal lipid and first amino acid. Distinct from conventional polymyxins, which are exclusively active against Gram-negative bacteria, PL-082 exhibits expanded antibacterial activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Through NMR and molecular dynamics simulations, we reveal that the strong interactions between PL-082 and POPG phospholipids—a dominant component of Gram-positive bacterial membrane—account for its unique activity against Gram-positive bacteria. Beyond elucidating the antibacterial mechanism of the novel antibiotic PL-082, this work also provides promising avenues for the development of potent, broad-spectrum antibiotics.

Key words: Polymyxin analog, Gram-positive bacteria, POPG phospholipids
