We herein report a simplified model system to investigate the functional significance of a structural motif of biologically potent muraymycin antibiotics of the A-series. These compounds have a highly unusual ω-guanidinylated fatty acid moiety, which has been proposed to mediate membrane penetration, thus enabling the interaction of A-series muraymycins with their intracellular target MraY. Our assay was based on a synthetic conjugate of this fatty acid structure with a negatively charged fluorophore lacking membrane permeability. Using this conjugate, immobilised giant unilamellar lipid vesicles and confocal laser scanning fluorescence microscopy, we demonstrated that the attachment of the ω-N-hydroxyguanidinyl fatty acid unit led to an enhanced uptake of the fluorophore into the vesicles. This represents the first experimental evidence of this unusual structural motif's functional relevance for the parent natural product, which may support the future design of novel muraymycin analogues."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1039/c4md00526k"],["dc.identifier.gro","3141982"],["dc.identifier.isi","000354437800016"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/11974"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/91677"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","Migrated from goescholar"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.notes.submitter","PUB_WoS_Import"],["dc.relation.eissn","2040-2511"],["dc.relation.issn","2040-2511"],["dc.relation.issn","2040-2503"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Fakultät für Chemie"],["dc.rights","Goescholar"],["dc.rights.access","openAccess"],["dc.rights.uri","https://goescholar.uni-goettingen.de/licenses"],["dc.subject","fatty acid; moiety; muraymycin antibiotics; Membrane-interacting"],["dc.title","Membrane-interacting properties of the functionalised fatty acid moiety of muraymycin antibiotics"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.subtype","original"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
