Abstract
One mechanism by which bacteria can escape the action of beta-lactam antibiotics is the production of metallo-beta-lactamases. Inhibition of these enzymes should restore the action of these widely used antibiotics. The tetrameric enzyme L1 from Stenotrophomonas maltophilia was used as a model system to determine a series of high-resolution crystal structures of apo, mono and bi-metal substituted proteins as well as protein-inhibitor complexes. Unexpectedly, although the apo structure revealed only few significant structural differences from the holo structure, some inhibitors were shown to induce amino acid side-chain rotations in the tightly packed active site. Moreover, one inhibitor employs a new binding mode in order to interact with the di-zinc center. This structural information could prove essential in the process of elucidation of the mode of interaction between a putative lead compound and metallo-beta-lactamases, one of the main steps in structure-based drug design.

Figure 1. Chemical formulae of the substrate (Nitrocefin) and inhibitors used in this work. Major components of MBL inhibitors are colored: the zinc binding group (ZN-B), the hydrophobic extension (A–E) and the hydrophilic extension (B–E) in yellow, pink and green, respectively.

Figure 3. Stereo views showing the active site of L1 in the group I structures. Additional water molecules or sulfate ions are shown compared to Figure 2 when they are in the second shell of Zn coordination. Zn ligands and amino acid site-chains forming the active side are displayed. Metal and hydrogen bonds are in full and broken red lines, respectively. For clarity, zinc ligands and water molecule labels, and hydrogen bonds displayed in Figure 2 are not shown.
