6-Arylimidazo[2,1-b]-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-sulfonamides 3 on Vilsmeier-Haak reaction produced 5-formyl-6-arylimidazo[2,1-b]-1,3, 4-thiadiazole-2-[N-(dimethylaminomethino)]sulfonamides 4, while 3 on treatment with potassium thiocyanate in the presence of bromine in acetic acid produced 5-thiocyanato-2-sulfonamides 6. Interaction of 4 with aminoguanidine hydrochloride in ethanol produced the corresponding 5-guanylhydrazone derivatives 5. Compounds 5 and 6 showed a high degree of antibacterial activity against both Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus comparable to that of sulfamethoxazole and Norfloxacin. However, they were found to show moderate activity against Salmonella typhi, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Pneumococci.

Plants provide an abundant source of potential therapeutic agents, including a diverse array of compounds, such as cyclotides, which are peptides known for their antimicrobial activity. Cyclotides are multifaceted molecules with a wide range of biological activities. Their unique topology forms a head-to-tail cyclic structure reinforced by a cysteine knot, which confers chemical and thermal stability.

Background: Francisella tularensis is an aerobic, gram negative coccobacillus bacterium that causes tularemia. F. tularensis spreads primarily through ticks, biting flies, droplet inhalation, contaminated mud or water, or infected animal bites, and it can survive in animal carcasses with the most common mode of transmission occurring via inoculation into the skin and inhalation/ingestion.

Tigecycline (Tgc), a third-generation tetracycline is found as the last line of defense against multi-drug resistant bacteria. Recent increased rate of resistance to tgc, a human-restricted agent among animal bacteria poses a significant global health challenge. Overuse of first generation tetracyclines (Tet) and phenicols in animals have been suggested to be associated with Tgc resistance development.

Identification of a novel butenolide signal system to regulate high production of tylosin in Streptomyces fradiae.

Appl Microbiol Biotechnol

January 2025

State Key Laboratory of Microbial Resources, Institute of Microbiology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, 100101, China.

Identifying hormone-like quorum sensing (QS) molecules in streptomycetes is challenging due to low production levels but is essential for understanding secondary metabolite biosynthesis and morphological differentiation. This work reports the discovery of a novel γ-butenolide-type signaling molecule (SFB1) via overexpressing its biosynthetic gene (orf18) in Streptomyces fradiae. SFB1 was found to be essential for production of tylosin through dissociating the binding of its receptor TylP (a transcriptional repressor) to target genes, thus activating the expression of tylosin biosynthetic gene cluster (tyl).
