Identification of an Inhibitor of the Aminoglycoside 6'-N-Acetyltransferase type Ib [AAC(6')-Ib] by Glide Molecular Docking.

ABSTRACT: The aminoglycoside 6'-N-acetyltransferase type Ib, AAC(6')-Ib, confers resistance to clinically relevant aminoglycosides and is the most widely distributed enzyme among AAC(6')-I-producing Gram-negative pathogens. An alternative to counter the action of this enzyme is the development of inhibitors. Glide is a computational strategy for rapidly docking ligands to protein sites and estimating their binding affinities. We docked a collection of 280,000 compounds from 7 sub-libraries of the Chembridge library as ligands to the aminoglycoside binding site of AAC(6')-Ib. We identified a compound, 1-[3-(2-aminoethyl)benzyl]-3-(piperidin-1-ylmethyl)pyrrolidin-3-ol (compound 1), that inhibited the acetylation of aminoglycosides in vitro with IC50 values of 39.7 and 34.9 µM when the aminoglycoside substrates assayed were kanamycin A or amikacin, respectively. The growth of an amikacin-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii clinical strain was inhibited in the presence of a combination of amikacin and compound 1.

Project description:The aminoglycoside 6'-N-acetyltransferase type Ib (AAC(6')-Ib) is a common cause of resistance to amikacin and other aminoglycosides in Gram-negatives. Utilization of mixture-based combinatorial libraries and application of the positional scanning strategy identified an inhibitor of AAC(6')-Ib. This inhibitor's chemical structure consists of a pyrrolidine pentamine scaffold substituted at four locations (R1, R3, R4, and R5). The substituents are two S-phenyl groups (R1 and R4), an S-hydroxymethyl group (R3), and a 3-phenylbutyl group (R5). Another location, R2, does not have a substitution, but it is named because its stereochemistry was modified in some compounds utilized in this study. Structure-activity relationship (SAR) analysis using derivatives with different functionalities, modified stereochemistry, and truncations was carried out by assessing the effect of the addition of each compound at 8 µM to 16 µg/mL amikacin-containing media and performing checkerboard assays varying the concentrations of the inhibitor analogs and the antibiotic. The results show that: (1) the aromatic functionalities at R1 and R4 are essential, but the stereochemistry is essential only at R4; (2) the stereochemical conformation at R2 is critical; (3) the hydroxyl moiety at R3 as well as stereoconformation are required for full inhibitory activity; (4) the phenyl functionality at R5 is not essential and can be replaced by aliphatic groups; (5) the location of the phenyl group on the butyl carbon chain at R5 is not essential; (6) the length of the aliphatic chain at R5 is not critical; and (7) all truncations of the scaffold resulted in inactive compounds. Molecular docking revealed that all compounds preferentially bind to the kanamycin C binding cavity, and binding affinity correlates with the experimental data for most of the compounds evaluated. The SAR results in this study will serve as the basis for the design of new analogs in an effort to improve their ability to induce phenotypic conversion to susceptibility in amikacin-resistant pathogens.
