Using a continuous fluorescence-based enzyme assay, we have characterized the antibacterial agents tumicamycin and liposidomycin B as inhibitors of solubilized Escherichia coli phospho-N-acetylmuramyl-pentapeptide translocase. Tunicamycin exhibited reversible inhibition (Ki = 0.55 +/- 0.1 microM) which was noncompetitive with respect to the lipid acceptor substrate and competitive with respect to the fluorescent substrate analog, dansyl-UDPMurNAc-pentapeptide. Liposidomycin B exhibited slow-binding inhibition (Ki = 80 +/- 15 nM) which was competitive with respect to the lipid acceptor substrate and noncompetitive with respect to dansyl-UDPMurNAc-pentapeptide. These results provide insight into the molecular mechanisms of action of these two classes of nucleoside antibiotics.

In the past five years, there have been remarkable advances in the study of β-amyrin synthase. This review outlines the catalytic mechanism and substrate recognition in β-amyrin biosynthesis, which have been attained by the site-directed mutagenesis and substrate analog experiments.
