Definitions
- This invention relates to the use of N-acyl beta lactam compounds as inhibitors of the fatty acid synthase FabH.
- the pathway for the biosynthesis of saturated fatty acids is very similar in prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
- Vertebrates and yeasts possess type I fatty acid synthases (FASs) in which all of the enzymatic activities are encoded on one or two polypeptide chains, respectively.
- FOSs type I fatty acid synthases
- ACP acyl carrier protein
- each of the reactions are catalyzed by distinct monofunctional enzymes and the ACP is a discrete protein.
- Mycobacteria are unique in that they possess both type I and II FASs; the former is involved in basic fatty acid biosynthesis whereas the latter is involved in synthesis of complex cell envelope lipids such as mycolic acids. There therefore appears to be considerable potential for selective inhibition of the bacterial systems by broad-spectrum antibacterial agents (Jackowski, S. 1992. In Emerging Targets in Antibacterial and Antifungal Chemotherapy. Ed. J. Sutcliffe & N. Georgopapadakou. Chapman & Hall, New York; Jackowski, S. et al. (1989). J. Biol. Chem. 264, 7624-7629.)
- the first step in the biosynthetic cycle is the condensation of malonyl-ACP with acetyl-CoA by FabH.
- malonyl-ACP is condensed with the growing-chain acyl-ACP (FabB and FabF, synthases I and II respectively).
- the second step in the elongation cycle is ketoester reduction by NADPH-dependent ⁇ - ketoacyl-ACP reductase (FabG).
- Fab H is therefore a major biosynthetic enzyme, which is also a key regulatory point in the overall synthetic pathway (Heath, R.J. and Rock, CO. 1996. J.Biol.Chem. 271, 1833-1836; Heath, R.J. and Rock, CO. 1996. J.Biol.Chem. 271, 10996- 11000).
- the antibiotic thiolactomycin has broad-spectrum antibacterial activity both in vivo and in vitro and has been shown to specifically inhibit all three condensing enzymes. It is non-toxic and does not inhibit mammalian FASs (Hayashi, T. et al.,1984. J. Antibiotics 37, 1456-1461; Miyakawa, S. et al., 1982. J. Antibiotics 35, 411-419; Nawata, Y et al., 1989. Acta Cryst. C45, 978-979; Noto, T. et al., 1982. J. Antibiotics 35, 401-410; Oishi, H. et al., 1982. J. Antibiotics 35, 391-396.
- cerulenin is a potent inhibitor of FabB & F and is bactericidal but is toxic to eukaryotes because it competes for the fatty-acyl binding site common to both FAS types (DAgnolo, G. et al.,1973. Biochim. Biophys. Acta. 326, 155-166). Extensive work with these inhibitors has proved that these enzymes are essential for viability. Little work has been carried out in Gram-positive bacteria.
- This invention involves N-acyl beta-lactam compounds and pharmaceutical compositions containing these compounds and their use as FabH inhibitors that are useful as antibiotics for the treatment of Gram positive and Gram negative bacterial infections.
- This invention further constitutes a method for treatment of a Gram negative or Gram positive bacterial infection in an animal, including humans, which comprises administering to an animal in need thereof, an effective amount of a compound of this invention.

- LDA lithium diisopropylamide
