In general,beta-lactam antibiotics
are not affected by drug pumps as their
target resides in the periplasmic space

Design of an inhibitor of alanine ligase
-inhibition is dependent on presence of ATP
- off rate t1/2 ~17 days
- koffINH << koff PDT, 108-109 slower off rate
-example of slow binding/slow off rate inhibitor

Previously discussed antibiotic mechanisms targeting D-Ala D-Ala
-transpeptidase inhibitor
-inhibitor of alanine racemase
-inhition of D-Ala ligase
Vancomycin-a natural product 'receptor' which specifically binds to D-Ala-D-Ala
via a network of H-bonding and blocks transpeptidase
Vancomycin Resistance
-bacteria use lactic acid instead of D-Ala
-ester linkage is much less favorable, repulsive
interactions between oxygen lone pairs, loss of H-bond

must remain unchanged at the end of the reaction

An RNA ligase selected from
randomized sequence
-randomize 220 bases
-library will be incomplete (4220 potential members possible); must assume many potential solutions
Using this strategyan RNA enzyme was discovered with
a t1/2 of 5 minutes vs. 33 years compared
to the uncatalyzed reaction
(107 rate acceleration)
