[Study of oleandomycin extraction in a methylene chloride-aqueous medium system].

Influence of pH, temperature and oleandomycin concentration on distribution of the antibiotic in the methylene chloride-aqueous medium system was studied. It was shown that the oleandomycin distribution coefficient did not depend on the antibiotic concentration within the ranges of 2000 to 20,000 micrograms/ml. An equation defining relationship between the oleandomycin distribution coefficient and pH of the aqueous phase is presented.

[Biosynthesis of oleandomycin by cultures of Streptomyces antibioticus obtained after regeneration and fusion of protoplasts].

The ability of Streptomyces antibioticus strains to synthesize oleandomycin is studied under the effect of regeneration and fusion of protoplasts. The production of strains-regenerants with an increased (by 30-50%) synthesis of oleandomycin is possible. Regenerants of mutants resistant to the proper antibiotic retain a high level of the oleandomycin synthesis more stably. Variations in the antibiotic-production ability are considered in regenerant populations of various generations.

[Effect of oleandomycin on the growth of the producer Streptomyces antibioticus itself and on its antibiotic synthesis].

It was shown that addition of oleandomycin to the fermentation broth during development of Str. antibioticus inhibited the mycelium growth within the first 2 days and lowered the level of its further biosynthesis. The inhibitory effect depended on concentration of the added antibiotic and medium composition. An excess of glucose increased the inhibitory effect of oleandomycin. The antibiotic influenced both synthesis of the oleandomycin macrolide ring and methylation of the molecule.

[Oleandomycin content of mycelium and fermentation solution during cultivation of Streptomyces antibioticus].

The time-course of the oleandomycin content in the mycelium and fermentation broth-filtrate was studied by the microbiological assay at different periods of cultivation of strains 471 and 961 in fermenters and flasks containing a rich soybean-corn medium. It was shown that centrifugation of the mycelium over the sucrose density gradient induced a 25-80 per cent decrease in its moist weight at the expense of removal of the admixture components of the rich medium. Addition of glucose (2 per cent) to the culture-grown in a lactose medium by the 72nd hour of fermentation had no effect on further increase of the cell biomass. However, it lowered the content of the mycelium-fixed and excreted antibiotic at all the subsequent fermentation periods. The content of oleandomycin in the untreated mycelium was only 0.36 per cent of its content in the fermentation broth filtrate. After centrifugation of the mycelium over the sucrose density gradient and its intensive washing with distilled water the content of the mycelium-fixed antibiotic decreased still more. The time-course of the content of the mycelium-fixed and excreted oleandomycin was characterized by the presence of two activity peaks; by the 80-110th and by the 140-170th hour of cultivation.

[Developmental cycle and the cytomorphological characteristics of the oleandomycin producer Streptomyces antibioticus].

The developmental cycle and cytomorphological features of the industrial strain OL-1 and its variant 0968 of the oleandomycin-producing organism were studied. Variant 0968 was obtained as a result of exposure of the spores of strain OL-1 to UV light. When grown under submerged conditions in flasks with the rich medium, the strains were characterized by a complete developmental cycle consisting of three generations of the hyphae. Every generation had a tendency for formation of submerged spores. The UV-induced variant differed from the industrial strain by higher levels of the antibiotic accumulation which correlated with higher rates of the spore germination. The strains were characterized by polymorphism of the mycelium and formation of submerged spores during their cultivation which is likely to prolong the antibiotic synthesis from 120 to 216 hours from the inoculation moment. The long-term selection of the oleandomycin-producing organism on the rich medium markedly changed the culture genotype and resulted in significant changes in the developmental cycle under submerged cultivation conditions. The data may be used for the microscopic control of the process of oleandomycin production.

[Increase in the oleandomycin distribution coefficient at the extraction stage by using electron carrier-acceptors].

A possibility of increasing the distribution coefficient of oleandomycin on its extraction from the aqueous solution into the organic phase containing an electron carrier-acceptor was shown. It was found that the level of the oleandomycin equilibrium shift into the organic phase depended on the carrier nature, i. e. the donor-acceptor interaction of the carrier and the antibiotic. It was shown that the oleandomycin fermentation broth contained non-identified admixtures, the interaction of which with the antibiotic was higher than its interaction with the acceptor-carriers tested.

[Penetration of oleandomycin into the subarachnoid space of neurosurgical patients].

Penetration of oleandomycin into the subarachnoid space in neurosurgical patients treated with the drug administered orally and intramuscularly in doses of 375 and 500 mg respectively was studied. The oleandomycin levels in the blood and cerobrospinal fluid were determined after a single administration of the antibiotic at an interval of 30 minutes to 7 hours. A total of 52 observations were recorded. Relation between oleandomycin penetration into the cerebrospinal fluid from the blood and the administration route was shown. The index of penetration through the blood-liquor barrier for the antibiotic intramuscular or oral administration was 9--70 and 3--40 per cent respectively. The maximum concentrations of the drug in the liquor were found in the patients with the clinical picture of meningitis.

[Effect of tetracycline and oleandomycin on the indices of nonspecific resistance in aseptic inflammation under conditions of changes in the body's reactivity].

The effect of tetracycline and oleandomycin on the complement titer, lysozyme content, serum bactericidal properties and presence of specific antibiotic antibodies in the blood serum was studied. The latter were shown with the Hoigné reaction under conditions of aseptic inflammation caused against the background of latent tetanus intoxication. It was shown that tetracycline and oleandomycin used in treatment of the animals with aseptic inflammation developed at the background of latent tatanus intoxication induced an increased in the complement titer, lysozyme content and bactericidal properties of the serum. Reduction of the above indices was observed by the 15th-20th day after discontinuation of the drug use. The increase in the factors of non-specific immunity under the effect of tetracycline and oleandomycin in the animals with aseptic inflammation caused against the background of latent tetanus intoxication was accompanied by appearance in the blood serum on non-specific antibodies revealed with the Hoigné reaction. Changed reactivity because of latent tetanus intoxication was accompanied by a delay in the formation of the non-specific antibodies in the blood serum. However, later the rate of their accumulation became higher and as a result the maximum titers of the antibodies were 2-3 times higher than those in the control animals.

Interspecies correlation of the pharmacokinetics of erythromycin, oleandomycin, and tylosin.

Knowledge of the disposition of macrolides in a single animal species has been insufficient for the prediction of the pharmacokinetics of macrolides in humans. To better understand the species differences in the pharmacokinetics of macrolide antibiotics, the disposition of erythromycin, oleandomycin, and tylosin in several mammalian species was examined. Generally, the serum concentration versus time profiles of these drugs after intravenous administration were described by two-compartment kinetic models and were similar within each species. These drugs were rapidly cleared, resulting in terminal half-lives of less than 2 h. Comparison of their pharmacokinetics showed greater variation in antibiotic disposition among animal species than noted for the differences within a species. When the pharmacokinetic data was fitted to an allometric model, the logarithms of volume of distribution, clearance, and half-life were linearly related to the logarithms of body weight. From these relationships, the human pharmacokinetics of erythromycin and oleandomycin were extrapolated and found to approximate observed human pharmacokinetics.

Characterization of a Streptomyces antibioticus gene cluster encoding a glycosyltransferase involved in oleandomycin inactivation.

By homology to the mgt gene (encoding a macrolide glycosyltransferase) from Streptomyces lividans, a 3.3-kb DNA fragment from the oleandomycin producer, Streptomyces antibioticus, was cloned and sequenced. Analysis of the sequence revealed the presence of the 3' end of a gene (ORF1) and two complete ORFs (ORF2 and oleD), all of them translationally coupled. The deduced product of the sequenced region of ORF1 contained the typical signature of integral membrane proteins responsible for the translocation of substrates across the membrane. The ORF2 product did not show significant similarity with proteins in databases, but contains an N-terminus leader peptide region characteristic of secreted proteins, and a lipid attachment site motif characteristic of membrane lipoproteins synthesized with a precursor signal peptide. The oleD product showed clear similarity with several UDP-glucuronosyl- and UDP-glycosyl-transferases from different origins and particularly with the mgt gene from S. lividans, and might encode a glycosyltransferase activity capable of inactivating macrolides. It is proposed that these three genes could participate in the intracellular glycosylation of oleandomycin and its secretion during antibiotic production.

Ring contraction of oleandrose on the macrolide antibiotic oleandomycin with [(Methoxycarbonyl)sulfamoyl]triethylammonium hydroxide inner salt.

Ring contraction of the neutral oleandrose sugar in the 14-membered-ring macrolide antibiotic oleandomycin (2) has been accomplished using [(methoxycarbonyl)sulfamoyl]triethylammonium hydroxide inner salt (1). The product of this interesting rearrangement, after methanolic hydrolysis of the 2'-acetate, is the 11-acetyl-3-O-(3"-methoxy-4"-vinylfuranosyl)oleandomycin (12). The in vitro activity of furanoside 12 is only moderately less than that of 11-acetyloleandomycin (13).

Systematic approach to understanding macrolide-ribosome interactions: NMR and modeling studies of oleandomycin and its derivatives.

The three-dimensional structures of oleandomycin (1) and its derivatives oleandomycin-9-oxime (2) and 10,11-anhydrooleandomycin (3) were determined in different solvents by the combined use of NMR and molecular modeling methods. The experimental NMR data were compared with the results of molecular modeling and known crystal structures of the related molecules. It was shown that the dominant conformation of the lactone ring is the folded-out conformation with some amounts of the folded-in one depending on the solvent and temperature, while desosamine and cladinose sugars adopt the usual chair conformations. Modeling calculations provided evidence for conformational changes in the upper lactone region as well. Saturation transfer difference (STD) NMR experiments have provided information on the binding epitopes of 1-3 in complexes with E. coli ribosomes. The obtained molecular surfaces in close contact with ribosomes were compared with recently available 3D structures of the related macrolide-ribosome complexes, and the observed differences were discussed. The knowledge gained from this study can serve as a platform for the design of novel macrolides with an improved biological profile.

Interspecies complementation in Saccharopolyspora erythraea : elucidation of the function of oleP1, oleG1 and oleG2 from the oleandomycin biosynthetic gene cluster of Streptomyces antibioticus and generation of new erythromycin derivatives.

Two glycosyltransferase genes, oleG1 and oleG2, and a putative isomerase gene, oleP1, have previously been identified in the oleandomycin biosynthetic gene cluster of Streptomyces antibioticus. In order to identify which of these two glycosyltransferases encodes the desosaminyltransferase and which the oleandrosyltransferase, interspecies complementation has been carried out, using two mutant strains of Saccharopolyspora erythraea, one strain carrying an internal deletion in the eryCIII (desosaminyltransferase) gene and the other an internal deletion in the eryBV (mycarosyltransferase) gene. Expression of the oleG1 gene in the eryCIII deletion mutant restored the production of erythromycin A (although at a low level), demonstrating that oleG1 encodes the desosaminyltransferase required for the biosynthesis of oleandomycin and indicating that, as in erythromycin biosynthesis, the neutral sugar is transferred before the aminosugar onto the macrocyclic ring. Significantly, when an intact oleG2 gene (presumed to encode the oleandrosyltransferase) was expressed in the eryBV deletion mutant, antibiotic activity was also restored and, in addition to erythromycin A, new bioactive compounds were produced with a good yield. The neutral sugar residue present in these compounds was identified as L-rhamnose attached at position C-3 of an erythronolide B or a 6-deoxyerythronolide B lactone ring, thus indicating a relaxed specificity of the oleandrosyltransferase, OleG2, for both the activated sugar and the macrolactone substrate. The oleP1 gene located immediately upstream of oleG1 was likewise introduced into an eryCII deletion mutant of Sac. erythraea, and production of erythromycin A was again restored, demonstrating that the function of OleP1 is identical to that of EryCII in the biosynthesis of dTDP-D-desosamine, which we have previously proposed to be a dTDP-4-keto-6-deoxy-D-glucose 3, 4-isomerase.

Characterization of the ATPase activity of the N-terminal nucleotide binding domain of an ABC transporter involved in oleandomycin secretion by Streptomyces antibioticus.

The oleB gene of Streptomyces antibioticus, oleandomycin producer, encodes an ABC transporter containing two putative ATP-binding domains and is involved in oleandomycin resistance and secretion in this organism. We have overexpressed in Escherichia coli the N-terminal nucleotide-binding domain of OleB (OleB') as a fusion protein and purified the fusion protein by affinity chromatography. The fusion protein showed ATPase activity dependent on the presence of Mg2+ ions. ATPase activity was resistant to specific inhibitors of P-, F-, and V-type ATPase whereas sodium azide and 7-chloro-4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole (NBD-C1) were strong inhibitors. The change of Lys71, located within the Walker A motif of the OleB' protein, to Gln or Glu caused a loss of ATPase activity, whereas changing to Gly did not impair the activity. The results suggest that the intrinsic ATPase activity of purified fusion protein can be clearly distinguished from other ATP-hydrolysing enzymes, including ion-translocating ATPases or ABC-traffic ATPases, both on the basis of inhibition by different agents and since it hydrolyzes ATP without interacting with a hydrophobic membrane component.

Evaluation of three 4"-deoxy-4"-sulfonamido-oleandomycin derivatives with erythromycin-like antibacterial potency.

Three derivatives of oleandomycin in which the C"-4 hydroxyl moiety was replaced for the first time with a nitrogen functionality have been compared with erythromycin base and oleandomycin base. The minimum inhibitory concentrations of these derivatives for 90% of a group of clinical isolates of Staphylococcus aureus were one-half to one-fourth those of erythromycin. The minimum inhibitory concentrations of the experimental macrolides for 50% of a group of S. aureus isolates resistant to greater than 12.5 micrograms of erythromycin per ml ranged from 0.2 to 0.39 micrograms/ml. The activities of these experimental compounds were equivalent to the activities of erythromycin against Staphylococcus epidermidis, Bacteroides fragilis, and Haemophilus influenzae isolates. In general, erythromycin was more active against Streptococcus species. Each experimental macrolide was superior to erythromycin in inhibiting RNA-directed, cell-free polypeptide synthesis. The three experimental compounds were markedly more active than erythromycin base after oral administration to mice infected with S. aureus. The 50% protective doses of the experimental compounds ranged from 27.4 to 45.7 mg/kg; that of erythromycin was approximately 100 mg/kg.

Identification and expression of genes involved in biosynthesis of L-oleandrose and its intermediate L-olivose in the oleandomycin producer Streptomyces antibioticus.

A 9.8-kb DNA region from the oleandomycin gene cluster in Streptomyces antibioticus was cloned. Sequence analysis revealed the presence of 8 open reading frames encoding different enzyme activities involved in the biosynthesis of one of the two 2, 6-deoxysugars attached to the oleandomycin aglycone: L-oleandrose (the oleW, oleV, oleL, and oleU genes) and D-desosamine (the oleNI and oleT genes), or of both (the oleS and oleE genes). A Streptomyces albus strain harboring the oleG2 glycosyltransferase gene integrated into the chromosome was constructed. This strain was transformed with two different plasmid constructs (pOLV and pOLE) containing a set of genes proposed to be required for the biosynthesis of dTDP-L-olivose and dTDP-L-oleandrose, respectively. Incubation of these recombinant strains with the erythromycin aglycon (erythronolide B) gave rise to two new glycosylated compounds, identified as L-3-O-olivosyl- and L-3-O-oleandrosyl-erythronolide B, indicating that pOLV and pOLE encode all enzyme activities required for the biosynthesis of these two 2,6-dideoxysugars. A pathway is proposed for the biosynthesis of these two deoxysugars in S. antibioticus.

New oleandomycin 9-oximes. Synthesis, characterization and biological activity.

A series of the novel oleandomycin 9-oximes has been prepared and characterized by spectroscopic data and X-ray analysis. The antibacterial in vitro activities of the oximes (6-10) were compared with that of oleandomycin (1). Among the novel derivatives the most active compound was 8(R)-methyloleandomycin-9-oxime (9) in contrast ot its 8(S)-isomer (10) which possessed only low potency. Some preliminary pharmacokinetic data of 9 confirmed its activity. Compound 9 has been advanced to further biological study.

[Effect of repeated cycles of tetraolean and oleandomycin administration on the indices of nonspecific resistence of the body in experimental staphylococcal sepsis].

The effect of repeated cycles of tetracycline and oleandomycin administration on the complement titer, content of lysozyme and bactericidal properties of the serum in rabbits with experimental staphylococcal sepsis was studied. It was shown that the septic process induced by intravenous inoculation of staphylococci was accompanied by stimulation of the host nonspecific resistance. However, repeated inoculations of the animals resulted in exhaustion of the host protective forces and decreased non-specific resistance. The use of tetracycline in experimental staphylococcal sepsis was accompanied by an increase in the complement titer, lysozyme content and bactericidal properties of the serum after both the 1st and 2nd cycles of the drug administration. The use of oleaudomycin induced an increase in the contents of the complement, lysozyme and bactericidal properties of the serum at the background of staphylococcal sepsis only after the 1st cycle. The repeated cycle of oleandomycin administration was accompanied by a decrease in the above indices. Such conditions should be taken into account in choosing the antibiotic for treatment of septic cases especially when repeated cycles of the drug administration are used.
