Abstract

Aminoglycoside antibiotics constitute a class of the drugs of high interest, whose therapeutic action is based upon the electrostatic interaction with the variety of RNA molecules. The positive charge of these drugs molecules, located at their amino functions, has a prevailing influence on this process. The potentiometry and (1)H NMR spectroscopy are applied hereby to achieve the characteristics of the acid-base properties of particular protonating groups. We found that the pK values of deprotonation processes cover a wide values range 6-9.8. The correlation spectra of sisomicin, both COSY and TOCSY, allowed attributing unambiguously individual signals to the corresponding protons. These spectra involve a lot of the cross-peaks originating from the B and C rings protons, while the analogous signals originating from A rings protons are less numerous. Molecular modeling provided that the methylated amino group of A ring is located too far from the protonated functions of the remaining rings to affect their pK values. The phenomena observed herein are discussed in line of strength of the analogous processes observed for other aminoglycosides. As the result, four types of amino groups consisted within these antibiotics are distingu...Continue Reading

Aminoglycosides (ASM)

Aminoglycoside is a medicinal and bacteriologic category of traditional Gram-negative antibacterial medications that inhibit protein synthesis and contain as a portion of the molecule an amino-modified glycoside. Discover the latest research on aminoglycoside here.

Antifungals

An antifungal, also known as an antimycotic medication, is a pharmaceutical fungicide or fungistatic used to treat and prevent mycosis such as athlete's foot, ringworm, candidiasis, cryptococcal meningitis, and others. Discover the latest research on antifungals here.
