Bifunctional Asymmetric Catalysis:  A Tandem Nucleophile/Lewis Acid Promoted Synthesis of β-Lactams

open access: yes, 2016
We describe a superior procedure for the catalytic, asymmetric synthesis of β-lactams using a bifunctional catalyst system consisting of a chiral nucleophile and an achiral Lewis ...

Diversity of Pharmaceuticals Enhances Antibiotic Resistance in the Invertebrate Gut via Biofilm‐Mediated Mechanisms

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Pharmaceutical diversity acts as an independent driver of antibiotic resistance in soil invertebrates. While bulk soil remains unaffected, the collembolan gut microbiome exhibits significant resistance gene enrichment under complex chemical exposure and diurnal warming.

Catalytic Functionalization of Unactivated π‐Bonds Enabled by Bidentate Directing Auxiliaries

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
This review explores how bidentate directing auxiliaries have advanced transition‐metal catalysis for unactivated alkene/alkyne functionalization. By leveraging chelated intermediates, bidentate directing auxiliaries enable precise hydrofunctionalization, difunctionalization, and C─H activation of π‐bonds with unique selectivity and reactivity.

Efficacy of β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitor combination is linked to WhiB4-mediated changes in redox physiology of Mycobacterium tuberculosis

open access: yeseLife, 2017
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) expresses a broad-spectrum β-lactamase (BlaC) that mediates resistance to one of the highly effective antibacterials, β-lactams.

Prolonged Infusion of β-Lactams Decreases Mortality in Patients with Septic Shock: A Retrospective before-and-after Study

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2021
Septic shock substantially alters the pharmacokinetic properties of β-lactams with a subsequently high risk of insufficiently low serum concentrations and treatment failure.

Replacement of the essential penicillin-binding protein 5 by high-molecular mass PBPs may explain vancomycin-β-lactam synergy in low-level vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium D366 [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 1992
The mechanism of synergy between vancomycin and penicillin, as well as other beta-lactam antibiotics, was examined in a penicillin-resistant E. faecium (D366) expressing an inducible low-level resistance to vancomycin. It was demonstrated that penicillin per se was not able to reduce the inducible expression of the 39.5-kDa protein (VANB) or the ...

Stress History Establishes a Transient Tolerant State That Shapes Antibiotic Survival Upon Resuscitation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
High‐throughput single‐cell analysis of resuscitating bacteria reveals a starvation‐history‐dependent transiently tolerant subpopulation that survives β$\beta$‐lactam exposure by temporarily reducing growth. Distinct from classical persisters, these actively growing yet dynamically modulated cells dominate survival across clinically relevant antibiotic

Catalytic Enantioselective Intramolecular Aza‐Michael Addition to α,β‐Unsaturated Esters

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A general method for accessing enantioenriched saturated N‐heterocycles via a catalytic enantioselective intramolecular aza‐Michael reaction to α,β‐unsaturated esters is described. A superbasic bifunctional iminophosphorane (BIMP) catalyst was key to enabling reactivity of the high pKa sulfonamide pronucleophile, whilst delivering good to excellent ...

Mycobacterium abscessus and β-Lactams: Emerging Insights and Potential Opportunities

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
β-lactams, the most widely used class of antibiotics, are well-tolerated, and their molecular mechanisms of action against many bacteria are well-documented.

Diclofenac Resensitizes Methicillin‐Resistant Staphylococcus aureus to β‐Lactams and Prevents Implant Infections

open access: yesAdvanced Science, 2021
Implant infections caused by methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) can cause major complications during the perioperative period. Diclofenac, one of the most widely used nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs, is often used to relieve pain and
