Abstract

A series of salicylanilide compounds was previously identified as Antibacterial agents that inhibit the peptidoglycan formation. To find the exact binding mode, we synthesized a benzophenone-containing salicylanilide compound (1) and used it as a photoaffinity probe to label Acinetobacter baumannii penicillin-binding protein (PBP1b). After incubation and photo-irradiation, the labeled protein was subjected to trypsin digestion, dialysis enrichment, LC-ESI-MS/MS analysis, and Mascot search to reveal an octadecapeptide sequence 364RQLRTEYQESDLTNQGLR381 that was labeled at E372. Our molecular docking experiments suggest a hydrophobic pocket surrounded by R367 and E372 is the binding site of salicylanilide 1. The pocket lies in between the transglycosylase and transpeptidase domains, thus binding of salicylanilide 1 can block the propagation pathway to disrupt the growth of peptidoglycan chain.
