| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Novel antibiotics have been highly demanded because of emergence of drug-resistant bacteria. Here we investigated membrane-active antimicrobial oligosaccharide cyclodextrins. These possess functional groups to permeabilize bacterial cell membranes. The polyfunctionalization of sugars was achieved through a microwave-assisted click reaction. A survey using the derivatives with systematically varied functionalities clarified the unique correlation of the antimicrobial activity of these compounds with their structures. The dependence of number of functional groups in the molecule demonstrates that the assembly of the groups is necessary for expressing antimicrobial activity. The compounds having selective toxicity against bacteria including multidrug-resistant pathogens were observed. The results demonstrate that the sugar is a versatile molecular scaffold for rationally designed structures and can be used for the development of new antibiotics.
