Action against Disease Model Aztreonam Drug Info Doripenem, a parenteral carbapenem, exhibited high affinity for penicillin-binding protein 2 (PBP2) and PBP3 in Pseudomonas aeruginosa and PBP2 in Escherichia coli, the primary PBPs whose inhibition leads to cell death. This PBP affinity profile correlates with the broad-spectr uM gram-negative activity observed with doripenem. [3]
Latamoxef Drug Info Reduced cell permeability and target penicillin-binding protein modification were investigated as mechanisms of intrinsic resistance in strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa resistant to carbenicillin (MIC greater than 128 mg/L) independently of beta-lactamase production. The carbenicillin-resistant strains were also remarkably resistant to other beta-lactams, quinolones, tetracyline and chloramphenicol, whereas carbenicillin-hypersusceptible strains (MIC less than 2 mg/L) were very sensitive to these antimicrobial compounds. These observations suggested a non-specific mechanism of resistance involving reduced permeability of the outer layers of the bacterial cell. However, carbenicillin-resistant and carbenicillin-sensitive strains had identical porin levels and the target penicillin-binding proteins of carbenicillin-resistant (MIC 256-2048 mg/L), carbenicillin-sensitive (MIC 64 mg/L) and carbenicillin-hypersusceptible (MIC 0.015 mg/L) strains were equally sensitiveto beta-lactams. Thus, subtle changes in porin function or additional outer-membrane barriers regulating permeability may be involved in intrinsic resistance.IC50: 60 ng/mL [4]
