Mode of action of the new antibiotic for Gram-positive pathogens daptomycin: Comparison with cationic antimicrobial peptides and lipopeptides
Open accessAbstract
With the steady rise in the number of antibiotic-resistant Gram-positive pathogens, it has become increasingly important to find new antibacterial agents which are highly active and have novel and diversified mechanisms of action. Two classes will be discussed here: the cationic antimicrobial peptides, which are amphiphilic in nature, targeting membranes and increasing their permeability; and lipopeptides, which consist of linear or cyclic peptides with an N-terminus that is acylated with a fatty acid side chain. One member of the cyclic lipopeptide family, the anionic molecule daptomycin, has been extensively studied and is the major focus of this review. Models will be presented on its mode of action and comparisons will be made to the known modes of action of cationic antimicrobial peptides and other lipopeptides.

“Despite the diversity in the amino acid sequence and the structural classes (i.e., β -sheets, α -helices, loops and extended structures [12]) of antimicrobial peptides, with over 700 known to date, they all share a common three-dimensional arrangement.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
