Abstract
This article reviews the structures and biological activities of several classes of uridine-containing nucleoside antibiotics (tunicamycins, mureidomycins/pacidamycins/sansanmycins, liposidomycins/caprazamycins, muraymycins, capuramycins) that target translocase MraY on the peptidoglycan biosynthetic pathway. In particular, recent advances in structure-function studies, and recent X-ray crystal structures of translocase MraY complexed with muraymycin D2 and tunicamycin are described. The inhibition of other phospho-nucleotide transferase enzymes related to MraY by nucleoside antibiotics and analogues is also reviewed.
