Publication Abstract from PubMed The galactose specific lectin LecA mediates biofilm formation in the opportunistic pathogen P. aeruginosa . The interaction between LecA and aromatic beta-galactoside biofilm inhibitors involves an intermolecular CH-pi T-shape interaction between C(epsilon1)-H of residue His50 in LecA and the aromatic ring of the galactoside aglycone. The generality of this interaction was tested in a diverse family of beta-galactosides. LecA binding to aromatic beta-galactosides (KD approximately 8 muM) was consistently stronger than to aliphatic beta-galactosides (KD approximately 36 muM). The CH-pi interaction was observed in the X-ray crystal structures of six different LecA complexes, with shorter than the van der Waals distances indicating productive binding. Related XH/cation/pi-pi interactions involving other residues were identified in complexes of aromatic glycosides with a variety of carbohydrate binding proteins such as concanavalin A. Exploiting such interactions might be generally useful in drug design against these targets.
