Description

A nonribosomal polypeptide compound, its synthetic gene cluster BNP37, and its applications Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of microbial natural products, and particularly relates to a non-ribosomal polypeptide compound, its synthetic gene cluster BNP37, and its applications. Background Technology

[0002] The overuse of antibiotics has led to the faster emergence of drug-resistant bacteria and resistance genes, reducing the therapeutic potential of antibiotics in humans and animals. Bacterial resistance is becoming increasingly serious, with even multidrug-resistant bacteria emerging. Therefore, the need for the development of novel antibiotics is particularly urgent.

[0003] Among multidrug-resistant bacterial infections, Gram-negative bacterial infections are the most serious. Gram-negative strains account for as much as 70.1% of clinical infections, especially carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria (CROs), which pose a significant challenge to clinical anti-infective treatment. Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa are among the most common drug-resistant species. They are the most common, most concerning, and most clinically threatening drug-resistant bacteria in CROs. These species exhibit high resistance to many commonly used clinical antibiotics, and their detection rate is continuously increasing. Due to their unique double-membrane structure and complex resistance mechanisms such as multiple drug efflux pumps, Gram-negative bacteria have resulted in almost no innovative antibiotics being developed and marketed in the past 40 years. Polymyxins, introduced in 1947, were gradually withdrawn from clinical use due to their significant nephrotoxicity and neurotoxicity. However, with the emergence and prevalence of CRO infections, polymyxins have returned to clinical use due to their efficacy against almost all CROs, and are used as a last line of defense against Gram-negative bacterial infections. While providing good therapeutic effects, the current state of polymyxin resistance cannot be ignored. In addition to natural resistance, the emergence and widespread dissemination of the plasmid-mediated polymyxin resistance gene (mcr-1) in 2015 poses a significant threat to the efficacy of polymyxins. In conclusion, the global clinical application value of polymyxins remains irreplaceable, but they also face the challenges of increasing resistance and toxicity. Therefore, the development of novel antimicrobial compounds is particularly important to address the problem of bacterial resistance in pathogens. Summary of the Invention

[0074] The compound Paenimycin synthesized in this invention exhibits potent activity against resistant strains of common clinical antimicrobial drugs due to its unique dual-target mechanism of action, without inducing drug resistance under laboratory conditions. Currently, the only reported lipid A-binding antibiotics are from the polymyxin family. Paenimycin is effective against major clinical Gram-negative pathogens resistant to polymyxins, such as Acinetobacter baumannii, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, and Enterobacter cloacae. Simultaneously, it also shows good activity against naturally resistant polymyxin bacteria such as Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Neisseria meningitidis.

[0075] In this invention, amino acids represented by three-letter abbreviations generally refer to L-type amino acids. For example, Dab refers to L-2,4-diaminobutyric acid. However, in certain specific contexts, those skilled in the art will understand that the amino acids may also include both L-type and D-type structures. For example, in the statement "X1, X3, X5, X8 are each independently selected from the following basic amino acids of L-type or D-type: Dab (2,4-diaminobutyric acid), Dap, Orn, Lys, Arg, or His", Dab includes both L-Dab and D-Dab (also known as dDab) structures.

[0076] The terms “optional” or “optionally” mean that the event or condition subsequently described may or may not occur, including both the occurrence and non-occurrence of said event or condition. For example, “optionally” substituted with a halogen means that the ethyl group can be unsubstituted (CH2CH3), monosubstituted (CH2CH2F, CH2CH2Cl, etc.), polysubstituted (CHFCH2F, CH2CHF2, CHFCH2Cl, CH2CHCl2, etc.), or fully substituted (CF2CF3, CF2CCl3, CCl2CCl3, etc.). Those skilled in the art will understand that for any group containing one or more substituents, no substitution or substitution pattern that is spatially impossible and / or cannot be synthesized is introduced.

[0077] Beneficial effects: Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following significant advantages:

[0078] The polypeptide compounds obtained in this invention exhibit good antibacterial activity against various pathogenic bacteria. They not only show excellent antibacterial activity against a variety of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, but also retain strong antibacterial activity against a variety of drug-resistant bacteria. These include effectiveness against meropenem, third-generation cephalosporins, and polymyxin-resistant strains, activity against naturally resistant polymyxin strains, and activity against methicillin and vancomycin-resistant Gram-positive bacteria.

[0079] The polypeptide compounds of this invention are easy to prepare and inexpensive, with simple structures, ingenious designs, readily available and inexpensive raw materials, and safe and environmentally friendly synthesis processes, facilitating large-scale production. The polypeptide compounds of this invention possess a unique dual-target mechanism, targeting Gram-negative pathogens by binding to lipopolysaccharide components on the outer cell wall, K... d The value was 2.18 μM, while polymyxin E bound to K d The concentration was 2.00 μM. By knocking out the WaaC and WaaG genes, lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-deficient outer and inner nuclear strains were constructed, respectively. The compound retained its effective antibacterial activity in both strains, indicating its binding to lipid A in LPS. Further molecular dynamics simulations confirmed that the compound binds to the phosphate groups flanking the hexose group of lipid A and the hydroxyl group at the six-position of the side chain. Against Gram-positive pathogens, the compound binds to teichoic acid in the bacterial cell wall, and then to lipoteichoic acid (K+). d The value was 5.61 μM. Molecular dynamics simulations showed that the phosphate groups in the long-chain repeating units disrupted the bacterial cell membrane, causing the efflux of important intracellular ions and leading to bacterial death.

[0080] In vivo antibacterial activity tests in mice showed that the peptide compound exhibited dose-dependent efficacy against carbapenem- and third-generation cephalosporin-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii. Subcutaneous administration of 5 mg / kg reduced the bacterial load in the mouse thigh by 2.17 log10, and at a concentration of 20 mg / kg, it reduced it by 2.40 log10, comparable to the effect of polymyxin E. Meropenem, a carbapenem antibiotic, was ineffective. Against the newly emerging polymyxin-resistant Escherichia coli with resistance mediated by the mcr-1 plasmid, the peptide compound also showed dose-dependent efficacy. Subcutaneous administration of 5 mg / kg reduced the bacterial load in the mouse thigh by 2.47 log10, and at a concentration of 20 mg / kg, it reduced it by 3.42 log10, demonstrating significant efficacy. The efficacy of the peptide compound was superior to meropenem, while polymyxin E was ineffective. Against multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae resistant to polymyxin, meropenem, and third-generation cephalosporins, the efficacy of the peptide compound showed a dose-dependent effect. Subcutaneous administration of 5 mg / kg reduced the bacterial load in the mouse thigh by 2.25 log10, and at a concentration of 20 mg / kg, it reduced it by 3.12 log10. Polymyxin and meropenem were ineffective. Against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, the efficacy of the peptide compound showed a dose-dependent effect. Subcutaneous administration of 5 mg / kg reduced the bacterial load in the mouse thigh by 1.24 log10, and at a concentration of 20 mg / kg, it reduced it by 1.79 log10, comparable to vancomycin, while methicillin was ineffective. No acute toxicity was observed in in vivo animal experiments at all different concentrations. The peptide compound synthesized in this invention can be used to prepare antibacterial drugs.

[0081] Furthermore, this invention is the first to propose the non-ribosomal polypeptide natural product biosynthesis gene cluster BNP37. Based on the analysis of gene cluster BNP37, a series of synthetic polypeptide compounds were synthesized and designed, resulting in polypeptide compounds with potent and broad-spectrum activity against multidrug-resistant bacteria.

[0134] Discovery of the BNP37 biosynthetic gene cluster

[0135] Figure 1 illustrates the process of mining BNP37 biosynthetic gene clusters. A total of 1024 bacterial genomes from the Paenibacillaceae family were collected from public databases and sequencing information of strains gathered within the laboratory. Using antiSMASH software, all genomic data were analyzed, yielding 17176 biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs). Further screening was conducted to identify non-ribosomal polypeptide biosynthetic gene clusters. A Python script was written to determine the type of biosynthetic gene cluster, calculate the number of adenosine domains, and determine the presence of thioesterase domains as screening criteria, resulting in 776 candidate non-ribosomal polypeptide biosynthetic gene clusters. To exclude known natural product biosynthetic gene clusters and determine the similarity between candidate biosynthetic gene clusters, we used BIG-SCAPE to perform cluster analysis on all candidate biosynthetic gene clusters. Through screening, we obtained a single point that did not cluster with other biosynthetic gene clusters. We named this biosynthetic gene cluster BNP37, and its sequence is shown in the NCBI Genbank accession number: NZ_JAQAGY010000015.1. The functional annotations of the biosynthetic genes are shown in Table 1.

[0138] BNP37-guided synthesis of a series of polypeptide compounds: chemical synthesis of linear and cyclic peptides.

[0139] Using adenosine domain bioinformatics prediction and phylogenetic tree analysis, the structure and conformation of the polypeptide sequences encoded by the BNP37 biosynthetic gene cluster were analyzed and designed. The gene sequences were converted into structural sequences, and the obtained polypeptide sequences were synthesized using linear and cyclic polypeptide techniques. The polypeptide compounds in this invention can be directly synthesized using existing polypeptide synthesis methods from biotechnology companies, or synthesized according to the methods described below.

[0140] The specific synthesis method is as follows:

[0141] (1) Linear polypeptide synthesis:

[0142] Taking linear peptide synthesis as an example,

[0143] a) Loading of the first amino acid: Weigh 300 mg of 2-chlorotriphenylmethyl chlororesin (0.1 mmol synthetic equivalent) and load it into an empty SPE column equipped with a filter sieve. Add 8 mL of DCM and allow it to swell at room temperature for 30 minutes. Then, use a vacuum pump to remove the solvent. Weigh Fmoc-X... 11Amino acid (Fmoc-L-Asp(OtBu)-OH, 0.17g, 0.3g)

[0144] 2,4,6-trimethylpyridine (0.3 mL, 2 mmol) was dissolved in 8 mL of DCM, and then 2,4,6-trimethylpyridine (0.3 mL, 2 mmol) was added. After mixing and dissolving, the solution was added to an SPE column packed with resin and reacted at room temperature for 8-12 hours to prepare the resin loaded with the first amino acid.

[0145] b) Peptide chain elongation: Wash the resin three times each with 3 mL of DCM and DMF, then add 4 mL of a solution containing 20% ​​DCM.

[0146] The reaction of piperidine in DMF solution was repeated twice for 7.5 minutes to remove the Fmoc protecting group. Meanwhile, separately weigh F...

[0147] moc-X 10 Amino acids (Fmoc-L-Val-OH, 0.14 g, 0.3 mmol), HBTU (0.15 g, 0.3 mmol),

[0148] 0.3 mmol HOBt (0.055 g, 0.3 mmol) and DIPEA (0.071 mL, 0.3 mmol) were dissolved in 6 mL DMF. After deprotection, the resin was washed five times with 3 mL DMF, and the mixture of amino acids was poured in. The mixture was allowed to stand at room temperature for 1 hour. The coupling steps were repeated to sequentially condense and link X9-X8-X7-X6-

[0149] X5-X4-X3-X2-X1-X0, the amino acid raw materials are, in sequence: Fmoc-D-Tyr(tBu)-OH, Fmoc-L-Dab(Boc)-OH,

[0150] Fmoc-L-Leu-OH, Fmoc-D-Phe-OH, Fmoc-L-Dab(Boc)-OH, Fmoc-L-Leu-OH, Fmoc-

[0152] c) Final lysis: Prepare 5 mL of lysis solution (95% TFA, 2.5% TIPS, and 2.5% water), pour it into an SPE column containing the above linear peptide-resin mixture, and allow it to stand at room temperature for 2 hours. Collect the lysis solution, pour it into 45 mL of pre-cooled diethyl ether:n-hexane (1:1) mixture, and allow it to stand at -20°C for 1 hour to precipitate, yielding a white solid crude product.

[0153] All linear polypeptides were synthesized according to the above method based on the selection of different amino acid sequences and fatty acid chains.

[0154] (2) Synthesis of lactam cyclic peptides:

[0155] With X1 and X 11 Taking the synthesis of the formed lactam cyclic peptide as an example:

[0156] a) Linear polypeptide synthesis: The operation is the same as step (1) of this embodiment, except that the amino acid raw material at position X1 is replaced. The amino acid raw materials used are: Fmoc-L-Asp(OtBu)-OH, Fmoc-L-Val-OH, Fmoc-D-Tyr(tBu)-OH, Fmoc-L-Dab(Boc)-OH, Fmoc-L-Leu-OH, Fmoc-D-Phe-OH, Fmoc-L-Dab(Boc)-OH, Fmoc-L-Leu-OH, Fmoc-L-Dab(Boc)-OH, Fmoc-L-Thr(tBu)-OH, Fmoc-D-Dab(Alloc)-OH, and Myristic acid, to obtain a linear polypeptide-resin mixture.

[0157] b) Removal of Alloc protecting groups from amino acid side chains: Weigh 0.25 mL of phenylsilane (1.5 mmol) and 0.078 g of tetra(triphenylphosphine)palladium (0.05 mmol), dissolve them in 6 mL of DCM, and pour the mixture into the linear peptide-resin mixture described above. React at room temperature for 3 hours. After the reaction is complete, wash thoroughly with 50 mL of DMF solution containing 10% sodium diethyldithiocarbamate.

[0158] c) Cyclation of peptide amide bonds: Add 5 mL of DCM solution containing 1% TFA to the SPE column, react at room temperature for 2 minutes, collect the cleaved linear peptide solution in a 50 mL centrifuge tube, add 40 mL of DCM solvent, and then add DIPEA (0.7 mL, 3 mmol) and PyBOP (0.56 g, 0.8 mmol) sequentially, mix well, and shake horizontally overnight. Finally, wash with an aqueous solution containing 5% formic acid, collect the lower DCM solution, and dry the solvent for final lysis.

[0159] d) Final lysis: Add 5 mL of the prepared lysis solution (95% TFA, 2.5% TIPS, and 2.5% water) to the dried peptide mixture, shake for 2 hours to remove all side-chain protecting groups. Then pour the lysis buffer into 45 mL of pre-cooled diethyl ether:n-hexane (1:1) mixture, and let it stand at -20°C for 1 hour to precipitate and obtain crude peptide.

[0160] Other sites such as X3, X5 and X 11The amide bond cyclization is formed by the same method as above, except that the amino acid raw material at the corresponding site is replaced with Fmoc-X(Alloc)-OH.

[0161] (3) Synthesis of lactone cyclic peptides

[0162] Taking the synthesis of paenimycin as an example:

[0163] a) Linear peptide synthesis: The seventh amino acid X7: leucine (Fmoc-L-Leu-OH) was used as the first amino acid loaded onto the resin. The operation was the same as step (1) in this embodiment. The second amino acid X2 was replaced with Fmoc-L-Thr-OH. X7-X6-X5-X4-X3-X2-X1-X0 were synthesized in sequence. The amino acid raw materials used were: Fmoc-L-Leu-OH, Fmoc-D-Phe-OH, Fmoc-L-Dab(Boc)-OH, Fmoc-L-Leu-OH, Fmoc-L-Dab(Boc)-OH, Fmoc-L-Thr-OH, Fmoc-D-Dab(Boc)-OH, and Myristic acid, to obtain a linear peptide-resin mixture.

[0164] b) Ester bond synthesis: Fmoc-Asp(OtBu)-OH (1.1 g, 2 mmol), DIPEA (0.95 mL, 4 mmol), BzCl (0.31 mL, 2 mmol), and 4-dimethylaminopyridine (0.016 g, 0.1 mmol) were added sequentially to 15 mL of DCM and mixed thoroughly. The linear peptide-resin mixture was then immediately added and the mixture was shaken at room temperature for 48 hours.

[0165] c) Amide cyclization: Continue loading the remaining amino acids according to step (1) of this embodiment, and sequentially link X 10 After removing the Fmoc protecting group at the X8 site with a 20% piperidine solution, the target polypeptide is cyclized using the PyBOP-DIPEA condensation system according to the polypeptide amide bond cyclization method in step (2) of this embodiment. Then, it is washed with an aqueous solution containing 5% formic acid, the lower layer DCM solution is collected, and the solvent is dried for the final cleavage of the polypeptide product.

[0166] d) Final lysis: Add 5 mL of the prepared lysis solution (95% TFA, 2.5% TIPS, and 2.5% water) to the dried peptide mixture, shake for 2 hours to remove all side-chain protecting groups. Then pour the lysis buffer into 45 mL of pre-cooled diethyl ether:n-hexane (1:1) mixture, and let it stand at -20°C for 1 hour to precipitate and obtain crude peptide.

[0167] (4) N-methylation synthesis

[0168] Taking the methylation of X6:D-phenylalanine (D-Phe) as an example, the amino acid site to be methylated (Fmoc-D-Phe-OH) is synthesized according to the linear peptide extension step in the above embodiment. Similarly, the Fmoc protecting group of the amino acid is removed with a 20% piperidine DMF solution. Weigh out o-nitrobenzenesulfonyl chloride (0.12 g, 0.4 mmol) and dissolve it in 2 mL of NMP. Add 2,4,6-trimethylpyridine (0.15 mL, 1 mmol) and mix well. Pour the mixture into the resin and react at room temperature for 15 minutes. Remove the reaction solution and repeat the above operation once. Wash the resin three times with 5 mL of NMP. Add DBU (0.1 mL, 0.5 mmol) to 1.5 mL of NMP, mix well, and add it into the resin. Let it stand for 3 minutes. Add dimethyl sulfate (0.09 mL, 0.5 mmol) to 1.5 mL of NMP, mix well, and pour it into the resin. Mix by pipetting and react at room temperature for 3 minutes. Remove the reaction solution and repeat the above operation once. Wash the resin three times with 5 mL of NMP. Add 2-mercaptoethanol (0.1 mL, 1 mmol) and DBU (0.1 mL, 0.5 mmol) to 2 mL of NMP. React at room temperature for 5 minutes. Remove the reaction solution and repeat the above operation twice. Except for Fmoc-N-Me-L-Leu-OH and Fmoc-N-Me-L-Val-OH, which were purchased directly from Leyan Reagent Company, the N-methylation of other amino acids can be completed according to the above steps. Subsequent peptide chain elongation, esterification, and cyclization are carried out by continuing the linear peptide synthesis, ester bond synthesis, and amide bond cyclization steps in the above examples.

[0172] Example 4

[0173] BNP37 series polypeptide compounds were synthesized using the methods described in Examples 2 and 3.

[0174] Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) determination: MIC determination was performed according to the protocol recommended by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI). All compounds were dissolved in sterile dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) (SCR, CN) to obtain a stock solution of 12.8 mg / mL. The stock solutions were serially diluted in 96-well plates using the 2-fold dilution method to obtain solutions with concentrations of 64 μg / mL–0.0625 μg / mL, 50 μL per well. Overnight cultures of each test strain (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA, S. aureus ATCC BAA44) and carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB, A. baumannii ATCC BAA1605)) were diluted 5000-fold in fresh medium, and 50 μL of the dilution was added to each well. The lowest concentration at which no significant bacterial growth was observed after 16 hours of incubation at 37°C was recorded as the MIC value. All measurements were independently repeated three times.

[0175] High-resolution mass spectrometry (HPLC) detection: The synthesized BNP37 series peptide compounds were detected by HPLC using an ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-time-of-flight mass spectrometer (UPLC-QTOF). The LC conditions were as follows: CC18 column (Waters, C18-1.6 μm, 2.1 × 100 mm); mobile phase A was deionized water (containing 0.1% FA); mobile phase B was acetonitrile (containing 0.1% FA); the flow rate was 0.3 mL / min; and the gradient of mobile phase B was 30%–70%. MS detection used positive ion scanning, with real-time correction using leucine enkephalin solution (200 pg / μL, 10 μL / min); the detection range was 200–2000.

[0205] Example 9

[0206] Using the methods described in Examples 2 and 3, paenimycin was synthesized with the sequence: Myristic acid-D-Dab-Thr-Dab-Leu-Dab-D-Phe-Leu-Dab-D-Dab-Val-Asp, and its structure is:

[0207] In this embodiment, the lidic acid moiety was synthesized as tetradecanoic acid, with the amino acid sequence: D-type 2,4-diaminobutyric acid-threonine-2,4-diaminobutyric acid-leucine-2,4-diaminobutyric acid-D-phenylalanine-leucine-2,4-diaminobutyric acid-D-tyrosine-valine-aspartic acid. The threonine side chain hydroxyl group forms a lactone bond with the α-carboxyl group of aspartic acid, ultimately yielding a decacyclic lactone undecyl lipopeptide containing a tetradecanoic acid fatty chain, named paenimycin, with the sequence: Myristic acid-D-Dab-Thr-Dab-Leu-Dab-D-Phe-Leu-Dab-D-Dab-Val-Asp. Paenimycin was dissolved in deuterated DMSO, and its structure was confirmed using a 600M NMR spectrometer, as shown in Figures 2-6.

[0209] Bioactivity analysis of paenimycin

[0210] (1) In vitro detection of anti-multidrug-resistant bacteria activity

[0211] The antibacterial activity of paenimycin against common clinical bacterial pathogens was determined using the CLSI standard. The results are shown in Table 13 below, indicating that paenimycin has potent and broad-spectrum activity against multidrug-resistant bacteria.

[0212] Table 13 Antibacterial activity of paenimycin

[0213] (2) cytotoxicity detection of paenimycin

[0214] The cytotoxicity of paenimycin was determined using the 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2h-tetrazole bromide (MTT) method. HepG2 cells were cultured in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle medium (DMEM) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum. Cells were seeded into 96-well plates at a density of 5000 cells per well and cultured at 37°C and 5% CO2 for 24 hours. The medium was then removed, and 100 μL of fresh medium containing paenimycin at a final concentration of 64 μg / mL–0.25 μg / mL was added. Amphotericin B was used as a control. After incubation at 37°C and 5% CO2 for 48 hours, the medium was removed, and 110 μL of freshly prepared MTT solution (0.5 mg / mL) was added to each well. The mixture was incubated at 37°C for another 3 hours to form formazan crystals. Then, 100 μL of dissolving solution (40% DMF, 16% SDS, 2% acetic acid) was added to dissolve the precipitated formazan crystals. Finally, a microplate reader (Multiscan SkyHigh, Thermo Fisher) was used to analyze the OD... 570nm The absorbance of each well was measured. The effect of paenimycin on the IC50 of Hepg2 cells... 50 =34.84 μg / mL, far lower than the IC50 of amphotericin B. 50 =2.42 μg / mL. As shown in Figure 7, paenimycin exhibits low toxicity.

[0215] (3) Hemolytic activity test of paenimycin

[0216] Fresh, sterile, defiberized sheep blood was centrifuged, resuspended in PBS solution (pH 7.4), and diluted to 1×10⁻⁶. 9 Cells / mL. Paenimycin dilutions ranging from 100 μM to 0.38 μM were prepared and mixed with blood cell suspension to a final volume of 500 μL. 1% Triton X-100 and 1% DMSO were used as positive and negative controls, respectively. After incubation at 37°C for 3 hours, the cells were centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 20 minutes, and the supernatant was collected and transferred to 96-well plates. Hemolytic efficacy was measured using Multiscan SkyHigh absorbance at OD540 nm and calculated using Prism 9.0. All experiments were performed in triplicate (n=3). As shown in Figure 8, the results indicate that paenimycin at 100 μM has a low hemolytic effect. As shown in Figure 9, the HC50 value is greater than 100 μM, indicating low toxicity.

[0217] Example 11

[0218] In vivo antibacterial activity assessment of paenimycin

[0219] A mouse thigh muscle infection model with neutrophil deficiency was used.

[0220] Six-week-old, 23-27g female ICR mice free of specific pathogens were selected. Before the experiment, mice were divided into groups and allowed three days for environmental acclimatization. Cyclophosphamide (Sigma-Aldrich, CAS No.: 6055-19-2) was injected intraperitoneally at 150 mg / kg and 100 mg / kg, respectively, four days and one day before infection, to induce neutropenia in the mice. On the first day of infection, each mouse was injected intramuscularly with 50 μL of a suspension of Staphylococcus aureus ATCC BAA-44 / Escherichia coli MG1655-mcr-1 / Acinetobacter baumannii ATCC BAA-1605 / Klebsiella pneumoniae BNCC 353393 (approximately 1×10⁻⁶) in the thigh. 6 (cells). Two hours post-infection, mice were subcutaneously injected with different doses of paeminycin (1 mg / kg, 5 mg / kg, 10 mg / kg, 20 mg / kg) and their corresponding antibiotics meropenem, polymyxin E, vancomycin, and methicillin (20 mg / kg). Twenty-four hours post-infection, mice were euthanized, and the thigh muscle was aseptically excised, weighed, homogenized, and the bacterial load was calculated by colony-forming unit (CFU) count.

[0221] As shown in Figures 10-13, paenimycin showed a dose-dependent efficacy against carbapenem- and third-generation cephalosporin-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii. Subcutaneous administration of 5 mg / kg reduced the bacterial load in the mouse thigh by 2.17 log10, and at a concentration of 20 mg / kg, it reduced it by 2.40 log10, comparable to the effect of polymyxin E. Meropenem, a carbapenem antibiotic, was ineffective. Against the newly emerging polymyxin-resistant Escherichia coli with resistance mediated by the mgr-1 plasmid, paenimycin also showed a dose-dependent efficacy. Subcutaneous administration of 5 mg / kg reduced the bacterial load in the mouse thigh by 2.47 log10, and at a concentration of 20 mg / kg, it reduced it by 3.42 log10. Superior to meropenem, while ineffective against polymyxin E; against multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae resistant to polymyxin, meropenem, and third-generation cephalosporins, paenimycin showed dose-dependent efficacy, with subcutaneous administration of 5 mg / kg reducing bacterial load in mouse thighs by 2.25 log10, and at a concentration of 20 mg / kg, reducing it by 3.12 log10, while polymyxin and meropenem were ineffective; against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, paenimycin showed dose-dependent efficacy, with subcutaneous administration of 5 mg / kg reducing bacterial load in mouse thighs by 1.24 log10, and at a concentration of 20 mg / kg, reducing it by 1.79 log10, comparable to vancomycin, while methicillin was ineffective.

[0222] Paenimycin maintains good antibacterial activity in animals, suggesting its potential for development as a novel antibacterial drug.

[0223] Example 12

[0224] In vivo pharmacokinetic studies of Paenimycin

[0225] Pharmacokinetic studies were conducted using 6-8 week old male SD rats (200-300g). Paenimycin was administered intravenously (IV, 5 mg / kg) and subcutaneously (SC, 10 mg / kg). Blood samples were collected at the following time points after intravenous administration: before administration, 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours, 6 hours, 8 hours, 24 hours, and 48 hours after administration; and before administration subcutaneously, 1 hour, 3 hours, 8 hours, 24 hours, 32 hours, 48 ​​hours, 56 hours, 72 hours, and 96 hours after administration. At each time point, 0.1 mL of blood was collected from each rat via jugular vein puncture. Samples were transferred to plastic microcentrifuge tubes containing EDTA-K2 and stored on ice. Blood samples were centrifuged at 4000g for 5 minutes at 4°C, and plasma was collected within 30 minutes. Plasma samples were stored at -80°C.

[0226] HPLC-MS / MS pharmacokinetic analysis: Paenimycin (1 mg / mL, in DMSO) was serially diluted with ACN:water (50:50) to establish a standard curve and quality control solution. 5 μL of peak-setting solution was added to 50 μL of drug-free plasma to establish standards and quality controls. 55 μL of standard, 55 μL of QC sample, and 55 μL of unknown sample (50 μL rat plasma with 5 μL blank solution) were added to 200 μL of dexamethasone (10 ng / mL internal standard) and acetonitrile, respectively, to precipitate proteins.

[0227] The extract was vortexed for 1 minute and centrifuged at 4000 rpm for 15 minutes. The supernatant was diluted 3-fold with water. 20 μL of the diluted supernatant was injected into an LC / MS / MS system for quantitative analysis. HPLC-MS / MS analysis was performed on a Sciex Applied Biosystems Triple Quad 5500+ or ​​6500+ mass spectrometer coupled to a Shimadzu Nexera series system controller CBM-40UPLC (ultra-high performance liquid chromatography) system to quantify each drug in plasma. Chromatography was performed using a Raptor biphenyl column (3x30 mm; particle size 2.7 μm) with a reversed-phase gradient method. The mobile phase consisted of 5% acetonitrile-0.1% formic acid-ultrapure water as the aqueous phase and 95% acetonitrile-0.1% formic acid-ultrapure water as the organic phase. Multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) was used for quantitative analysis of parent / daughter transition in positive electrospray ionization mode. The MRM variations of paenimycin (467.00 / 461.50) and dexamethasone (393.06 / 373.00) are as follows. Samples were accepted for analysis if the concentration of the quality control sample was within 20% of the nominal concentration. Data processing was performed using Analyst software (v1.7.3; Applied Biosystems Sciex). The results are shown in Figure 14. Paenimycin exhibited favorable kinetics, with a half-life of 20.2 hours, a maximum concentration (Cmax) of 5200 ng / mL, an area under the curve (AUC0-∞) of 115251 h*ng / mL, and a bioavailability of 102%. These in vitro and in vivo experiments collectively demonstrate that paenimycin has a broad therapeutic window.

[0228] Example 13

[0229] paenimycin in vivo nephrotoxicity evaluation

[0230] Six-week-old, 23-27g female ICR mice free of specific pathogens were selected. Mice were grouped and acclimatized for three days prior to the experiment. Paenimycin was prepared as a 0.9% saline solution containing 10% DMSO and 0.5% Tween 80. Positive controls and placebos were prepared using colistin or antibiotic-free solutions, respectively. The subcutaneous injection dose was 40 mg / kg of paenimycin once daily for 1 or 7 days. Serum samples were collected 24 hours after the last administration. The concentrations of toxicity-related biomarkers, including kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1), tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-1 (TIMP-1), neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipofuscin (NGAL), and bone growth factor (OPN), were then determined using a commercially available kit (Yunkron, China) according to the kit's protocol. Finally, all animals were euthanized, and kidney tissue was collected, fixed, dissected, and stained with H&E. As shown in Figure 15, after administration of paenimycin, the nephrotoxicity-related indicators in the body were not significantly different from those in the placebo group, while the nephrotoxicity indicators in the polymyxin E group increased significantly. The conclusion drawn from the slice scoring analysis was that paenimycin caused almost no kidney damage, which was the opposite of the polymyxin E group.

[0231] Example 14

[0232] Acute toxicity test of Paenimycin

[0233] Six-week-old, 23-27g female ICR mice free of specific pathogens were selected. Before the experiment, the mice were divided into groups and allowed to acclimatize to the environment for three days. Paenimycin was prepared as a 0.9% saline solution containing 10% DMSO and 0.5% Tween 80, and administered subcutaneously at doses of 100 mg / kg, 200 mg / kg, 300 mg / kg, and 400 mg / kg, respectively. As shown in Table 14, in the highest dose group, all mice survived 24 hours after administration, suggesting that paenimycin has a high safety profile.

[0236] Study on the mechanism of action of paenimycin

[0237] (1) Bacterial lysis experiment

[0238] Single colonies of Staphylococcus aureus BNCC 186335 were picked and incubated overnight at 37°C and 220 rpm on a shaker. The bacteria were collected by centrifugation, resuspended in sterile PBS (pH 7.4), and diluted to OD200.600nm =0.35. Then, 900 μL of bacterial suspension was mixed with 100 μL of 17 μM SYTOX green nucleic acid dye (Thermo Fisher, USA), incubated at 37°C in the dark for 5 minutes, and transferred to 384-well flat-bottom black microplates (30 μL per well). The initial fluorescence intensity (excitation wavelength / emission wavelength = 488 / 523 nm) of each well was measured at 9-second intervals using a microplate reader (Infinite 200Pro, Tecan). After 5 minutes, the same volume of paenimycin solution with concentrations of 1, 2, 4, 8, and 10 × MIC was added to each well, with bee venom and DMSO used as positive and negative controls, respectively. Fluorescence intensity was continuously monitored for 25 minutes, and fluorescence intensity graphs were plotted using Prism 9.0. As shown in Figure 16, paenimycin at high concentrations causes an increase in fluorescence intensity, suggesting its bacterial lysis activity.

[0239] (2) Membrane depolarization test

[0240] Single colonies of Staphylococcus aureus BNCC 186335 were picked and incubated overnight at 37°C and 220 rpm on a shaker. The bacteria were collected by centrifugation, washed twice with 5 mM HEPES buffer, and resuspended in 5 mM HEPES buffer containing 20 mM glucose (OD200). 600nm =0.1). Take 1 mL of cell suspension, add 2 μL of 500 μM 3,3'-dipropylthiodinium dicyanocyanate [DiSC3(5)] dye (Macklin, CN), incubate at 37°C in the dark for 30 minutes, and transfer to 384-well flat-bottom black microplates (100 μL per well). Use a microplate reader to record the initial fluorescence intensity of each well at 9-second intervals (excitation wavelength / emission wavelength = 620 / 670 nm). After 5 minutes, add paenimycin solutions at concentrations of 1, 2, 4, 8, and 10 × MIC to each well, using Triton X-100 and DMSO as positive and negative controls, respectively, and continuously monitor the fluorescence intensity for 25 minutes. As shown in Figure 17, no increase in fluorescence intensity was detected in the paenimycin group at the highest test concentration, indicating that it does not cause cell membrane depolarization.

[0241] (3) Potassium ion release test

[0242] A single colony of Staphylococcus aureus BNCC 186335 was inoculated into 50 mL of LB medium and cultured overnight at 37°C and 220 rpm on a shaker. The bacteria were collected, washed twice with buffer (10 mM Tris-acetate, 100 mM NaCl, pH 7.4), and then resuspended in the same buffer to adjust the bacterial concentration to OD0.05. 600nm=1.0. Extracellular potassium ion concentration changes were measured using an Orion Dual Star pH / ISE meter at 5-second intervals. Paenimycin solutions at concentrations of 1, 2, 4, and 8 × MIC, and Gramicidin solution at a concentration of 8 × MIC (16 μg / mL), were added, and measurements were taken continuously for 8 minutes. As shown in Figure 18, after paenimycin treatment, the potassium ion concentration in the solution gradually increased, indicating that the bacteria began to excrete large amounts of potassium ions, and the efflux concentration was dose-dependent on the administered concentration.

[0243] (4) Sterilization curve test

[0244] Single colonies of Staphylococcus aureus BNCC 186335 and Escherichia coli ATCC 25922 were inoculated separately and cultured overnight in a shaker at 37°C and 220 rpm. The cultures were then diluted to a final bacterial concentration of 1 × 10⁻⁶. 6 CFU / mL. Paenimycin solution at 1, 4, and 8×MIC was added to the bacterial dilution; vancomycin at 8×MIC (8 μg / mL) (in Staphylococcus aureus BNCC 186335) or polymyxin E at 8×MIC (4 μg / mL) (in Escherichia coli ATCC 25922) was added. 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16 hours after the start of the experiment, 100 μL of bacterial suspension was taken, serially diluted, and plated onto LB agar plates. For Escherichia coli, the time intervals were increased to 0.25, 0.5, and 0.75 hours. The agar plates were incubated overnight at 37°C, and colonies were counted. As shown in Figure 19, paenimycin is a potent bactericide that exerts its bactericidal effect rapidly, killing pathogens within 4 hours.

[0245] (5) Scanning electron microscopy observation of the morphology of bacteria after paenimycin treatment

[0246] The bacterial samples of Staphylococcus aureus BNCC 186335 and Escherichia coli ATCC 259220h, 4h, and 8h were treated with 8×MIC in step (4), and the morphology of the bacteria at different treatment times was observed using scanning electron microscopy. The results are shown in Figure 20. Under the action of paeminycin, the cell membrane of Staphylococcus aureus ruptured and shrank after 1 hour, and completely shrank after 4 hours, losing its spherical structure; the cell membrane of Escherichia coli ruptured partially after 1 hour and 4 hours, and the bacterial morphology was maintained.

[0247] (6) Paenimycin resistance test

[0248] Single colonies of Staphylococcus aureus BNCC 186335 and Escherichia coli ATCC 25922 were inoculated separately and cultured in a shaker at 37°C and 220 rpm. The overnight cultures were then diluted 5000 times in the culture medium (final concentration 1×10⁻⁶). 6 The MIC values ​​of paenimycin, ciprofloxacin, and bacitracin against Staphylococcus aureus and paenimycin, ciprofloxacin, and tetracycline against Escherichia coli were determined using a assay (CFU / mL). For bacitracin, 50 μg / mL ZnCl2 was added to LB medium for measurement. The following day, bacterial cultures from the wells containing the sub-MIC concentrations of each antibiotic were diluted 500-fold in fresh medium, and the new MICs were tested using the same method described above. Subculture was performed for 28 consecutive days. As shown in Figure 21, unlike clinically used antibiotics, paenimycin did not induce resistance after continuous subculturing, suggesting that it is unlikely to induce drug-resistant bacteria in further clinical applications.

[0249] (7) Feeding experiment

[0250] Using *Staphylococcus aureus* BNCC 186335 and *Escherichia coli* ATCC 25922 as experimental materials, the effects of bacterial cell components on the antibacterial activity of paenimycin were studied. Cell components (peptidoglycan, total protein, genomic DNA, lipopolysaccharide, and lipoteichoic acid) from Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria were dissolved in water at a concentration of 5 mg / mL. Lipid A was dissolved in chloroform and premixed with 0.0156–1 mg / mL paenimycin solution for 15 minutes. The premixed solution was then air-dried. Each solution was added to a single well of a 96-well plate and diluted sequentially to a final concentration of 0.0078–0.5 mg / mL. The MIC values ​​were determined using the same method as for MIC determination. The fold change in MIC was calculated using the formula: Final MIC / Original MIC. As shown in Figure 22, paenimycin can bind to lipopolysaccharide, lipid A, and lipoteichoic acid.

[0251] (8) Target point determined by isothermal calorimetric titration

[0252] The binding of paenimycin to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and lipoteichoic acid (LPA) was determined using the ITC method. The ITC experiment was performed using a PEAQ-ITC (Malvern, UK) instrument at 25°C. A 5 mM paenimycin or 1 mM polymyxin E solution was prepared using 5 mM HEPES buffer (pH 7.4), along with 100 μM LPS or LTA. The titration process involved an initial sample volume of 0.23 μL, with 2 μL injected every 80 seconds, and continuous stirring at 500 rpm. Data were analyzed using PEAQ-ITC software, and thermodynamic parameters [enthalpy (ΔH), entropy (ΔS), and equilibrium binding constant (Kd)] were calculated using a single-binding-site model. The results are shown in Figure 23. The Kd value for paenimycin binding to LPS was 2.18 μM, comparable to the Kd value of 2.00 μM for polymyxin E binding to LPS. In addition, paenimycin binds to lipoteichoic acid with a Kd value of 5.61 μM, while polymyxin E does not bind.

[0253] (10) BODIPY TR cadaverine (BC) dye substitution experiment

[0254] The affinity of Paenimycin for lipid A was determined based on its ability to displace BC from a lipid A-BC mixture. 20 μg / mL LPS was premixed with 20 μM BC in 5 mM HEPES buffer (pH 7.4) and incubated at 37°C for 30 min. The mixture was then transferred to 96-well flat-bottom black microplates (50 μL per well). 50 μL of Paenimycin solution dissolved in 5 mM HEPES was added, resulting in a final concentration of 0.0 μg / mL–10.0 μg / mL. Polymyxin E and kanamycin at the same concentrations (0.0 μg / mL–10.0 μg / mL) served as positive and negative controls, respectively. After incubation in the dark for 5 min, fluorescence intensity was measured using a microplate reader (Infinite 200Pro, Tecan) (excitation / emission wavelength = 580 / 620 nm). As shown in Figure 24, similar to polymyxin E, paenimycin can replace the BC dye bound to lipid A, which is different from kanamycin, suggesting that its binding site is lipid A.

[0255] (11) Lipid A extraction and feeding experiment

[0256] Lipid A and pEtN-modified lipid A were extracted from *Escherichia coli* MG1655 and *Escherichia coli* MG1655-mcr-1 according to the prescribed method. Briefly, the bacteria were chemically lysed using a mixture of chloroform, methanol, and water (Bligh-Dyer) solvent, and lipopolysaccharide was precipitated by centrifugation. Lipid A was then extracted from the particulate mixture using a combination of mild acid hydrolysis and solvent extraction. Lipid A was defined as the chloroform-soluble fraction of lipopolysaccharide after mild acid hydrolysis. After lyophilization, the crude lipid A was dissolved in 500 μL of chloroform and added to a feeding experiment mixture containing 4×MIC paeminycin and diluted *E. coli* MG1655 bacterial culture (concentration 1×10⁻⁶). 6 In a 96-well plate containing (CFU / mL) polymyxin E as a control, OD was measured using Multiscan SkyHigh at 37°C. 600nm After 16 hours, growth curves were plotted. As shown in Figure 25, unlike polymyxin E, paenimycin maintained its antibacterial activity after the addition of lipid A and pEtN-modified lipid A, suggesting that it can still bind to pEtN-modified lipid A.

[0257] (12) Molecular dynamics simulation

[0258] Lipid A and polymyxin E structures were extracted from PDB 1QFF and 8DEV, respectively. The 3D model of paeminycin was optimized using MOE. An initial complex model was obtained by placing the ligand close to the receptor, and ionic charge interactions between the receptor (lipid A or LTA) and the ligand (polymyxin E or paeminycin) were realized. The complex model was then submitted to Desmond (Desmond / Maestro non-commercial version 2022.1) for MD simulations. First, a 1,2-dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) membrane model was automatically added, and then the orientation of the DPPC was modified so that the hydrophobic tail of the ligand was located at the center of the membrane plane. The complex was neutralized with Na or Cl ions, using a solution containing 0.15M NaCl. Solvation was performed using an orthogonal TIP3P water buffer box (default parameters in Desmond). The MD simulation consisted of a 5-step minimization with gradual constraint release, followed by a 200ns production run without constraints in the NPgT ensemble. The first step of the minimization was to confine the solute heavy atoms for 100 ps in the NVT ensemble at 10 K. The second step was to confine the membrane along the z-axis and protein atoms for 20 ps in the NPT ensemble at 100 K. The third step was to confine the membrane along the z-axis and protein atoms for 100 ps in the NPgT ensemble at 100 K. The fourth step was to heat the NPgT ensemble from 100 to 300 K for 150 ps. The fifth step was to remove all constraints in the NVT ensemble for 100 ps. The 200ns simulation was performed at 300 K with 1 bar in the NPgT ensemble, repeated 3 times, saving the ballistic coordinates every 100 ps. Geometric analysis was performed using the analyze_simulation.py script in Desmond. As shown in Figure 26, paenimycin binds to the phosphate groups on both sides of the hexose of lipid A and the hydroxyl group at the six-position of the side chain.

[0259] (13) Cell wall precursor accumulation experiment

[0260] The effect of paenimycin on cell wall biosynthesis was determined by measuring the accumulation of the cell wall precursor UDP-MurNAc-pentapeptide after antibiotic treatment. Single colonies of Staphylococcus aureus BNCC 186335 were inoculated into 50 mL of LB medium and cultured overnight at 37°C and 220 rpm on a shaker. The bacterial culture was then transferred to fresh medium and cultured until OD... 600nm =0.5. Then, chloramphenicol solution with a final concentration of 130 μg / mL was added, and the mixture was incubated at room temperature for 15 minutes. Paenimycin and vancomycin were added at a dose of 10×MIC, with DMSO as a negative control. After incubation for 1 hour, the bacteria were precipitated, and the bacterial resuspended in 30 μL of RO water and boiled for 15 minutes. After the solution cooled, it was centrifuged at 15000g for 5 minutes, and the supernatant was analyzed by UPLC-MS. As shown in Figure 27, unlike vancomycin, paenimycin did not lead to the accumulation of the cell wall precursor UDP-MurNAc-pentapeptide, suggesting that its mechanism of action is different from that of vancomycin.

[0261] (14) Extraction and conjugation of teichoic acid

[0262] Chitin was extracted from Staphylococcus aureus BNCC 186335. In short, crude peptidoglycan was extracted from Staphylococcus aureus, then completely washed with 4% SDS to remove lipoteichoic acid. The peptidoglycan mixture was then hydrolyzed with trichloroacetic acid to obtain water-soluble chitin. The lyophilized crude chitin was dissolved in water and diluted to 1 mg / mL, 2 mg / mL, 3 mg / mL, 4 mg / mL, and 5 mg / mL, respectively. These solutions were then mixed with 1 mg / mL paenimycin at w / w ratios of 0:1, 1:1, 2:1, 3:1, 4:1, and 5:1 and incubated at room temperature for 1 hour. The mixture was then centrifuged at 15,000 g for 5 minutes to precipitate the insoluble substances. The paenimycin content in the supernatant was detected by UPLC-MS, and the peak area change rate was calculated. As shown in Figure 28, paenimycin binds to chitin in a dose-dependent manner, unlike vancomycin.

[0263] In summary, the mechanism of action studies demonstrate that the BNP37 series compounds in this invention, represented by paenimycin, possess a unique and novel dual-target mechanism of action. They exhibit potent activity against both Gram-negative and Gram-positive drug-resistant bacteria, effectively addressing the challenge of treating complex drug-resistant bacterial infections. Against Gram-negative bacteria, paenimycin binds to the phosphate groups on both sides of the hexose group of lipid A in the cell wall and the hydroxyl group at the six-position of the side chain, disrupting the cell membrane structure and thus exerting its antibacterial effect. This mechanism differs from the action site of existing polymyxins, therefore exhibiting good in vitro and in vivo bactericidal effects against polymyxin-resistant strains, including acquired and naturally resistant strains. On the other hand, against Gram-positive bacteria, BNP37 binds to teichoic acid in the bacterial cell wall and the phosphate groups in its long-chain repeating units, disrupting the bacterial cell membrane and leading to bacterial death. Currently, no antibiotics exert their activity through this target.
