Abstract: | The novel penem CGP 31 608 (5R, 6S, 8R) and its enantiomer CGP 32 879 (5S, 6R, 8S) were shown to be essentially stable against hydrolysis by type Id-lactamase isolated fromPseudomonas aeruginosa18S/H. CGP 31 608 was a potent progressive inhibitor of this enzyme (I50=32M), which was only weakly inhibited by CGP 32 879 (I50=460M). CGP 31 608 had the highest affinity for penicillin-binding protein (PBP) 4 fromEscherichia coliK-12 (I50= 1g/ml), followed by PBPs 2 (10g/ml) and 1A/1Bs (100g/ml); CGP 32 879 did not inhibit binding of14C-benzylpenicillin to the PBPs. The steric configuration of the-lactam nucleus of penems appears to strongly influence their affinity for-Iactamases and target PBPs. The balanced spectrum of CGP 31 608 may be explained by its-lactamase stability and affinity for several vital PBPs. |
