Structure of E. coli FabF(C163Q) in complex with dihydroplatensimycin
Structural highlights
FunctionFABF_ECOLI Catalyzes the condensation reaction of fatty acid synthesis by the addition to an acyl acceptor of two carbons from malonyl-ACP. Has a preference for short chain acid substrates and may function to supply the octanoic substrates for lipoic acid biosynthesis. Evolutionary ConservationCheck, as determined by ConSurfDB. You may read the explanation of the method and the full data available from ConSurf. Publication Abstract from PubMedPlatensimycin (1) displays antibacterial activity due to its inhibition of the elongation condensing enzyme (FabF), a novel mode of action that could potentially lead to a breakthrough in developing a new generation of antibiotics. The medicinal chemistry efforts were focused on the modification of the enone moiety of platensimycin and several analogs showed significant activity against FabF and possess antibacterial activity. Synthesis and biological evaluation of platensimycin analogs.,Shen HC, Ding FX, Singh SB, Parthasarathy G, Soisson SM, Ha SN, Chen X, Kodali S, Wang J, Dorso K, Tata JR, Hammond ML, Maccoss M, Colletti SL Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2009 Mar 15;19(6):1623-7.
