Function
[A0A133CH35_ENTFC] Cleaves peptides in various proteins in a process that requires ATP hydrolysis. Has a chymotrypsin-like activity. Plays a major role in the degradation of misfolded proteins.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00444][RuleBase:RU000550][SAAS:SAAS00674840]
Publication Abstract from PubMed
Antibiotics with novel bactericidal mechanisms of action are urgently needed. The antibiotic acyldepsipeptide 4 (ADEP4) activates the ClpP protease and causes cells to self-digest. The effects of ADEP4 and ClpP activation have not been sufficiently characterized for the enterococci, which are important pathogens known for high levels of acquired and intrinsic antibiotic resistance. In the present study, ADEP4 was found to be potently active against both Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium with an MIC90 of 0.016 mug/ml and 0.031 mug/ml, respectively. ClpP purified from E. faecium was found to bind ADEP4 using surface plasmon resonance analysis and ClpP activation by ADEP4 was demonstrated biochemically with a beta -casein digestion assay. In addition, E. faecium ClpP was crystallized in the presence of ADEP4, revealing ADEP4 binding to ClpP in the activated state. These results confirm that the anti-enterococcal activity of ADEP4 occurs through ClpP activation. In kill curves, ADEP4 was found to be bactericidal against stationary phase vancomycin resistant E. faecalis (VRE) strain V583, and resistance development was prevented when ADEP4 was combined with multiple classes of approved antibiotics. ADEP4 also eradicated mature VRE biofilms in combination with partnering antibiotics within 72 h of treatment. Biofilm killing with ADEP4 antibiotic combinations was superior to the clinically used combinations of ampicillin and gentamicin or ampicillin and daptomycin. In a murine peritoneal septicemia model, ADEP4 alone was as effective as ampicillin. ADEP4 co-administered with ampicillin was significantly more effective than either drug alone. These data suggest ClpP activating antibiotics may be useful for treating enterococcal infections.
