In organisms which produce cephalosporin and cephamycins, the configuration of the O -aminoadipyl side chain of (30) is D, while penicillin producers yield the l isomer. The exact point at which the configuration is inverted is unknown. Subsequent steps in cephalosporin biosynthesis are believed to involve ring expansion to deacetoxycephalosporin C (31), which may proceed by a mechanism analogous to the chemical pathway (see Section 5.10.4.2), followed by hydroxylation and acetylation at C-3 to produce cephalosporin C (32). [Pg.292]

Cephalosporins and cephamycins are similar to penicillins chemically, in mechanism of action, and in toxicity. Cephalosporins are more stable than penicillins to many bacterial G-lactamases and therefore usually have a broader spectrum of activity. Cephalosporins are not active against enterococci and Listeria monocytogenes. [Pg.1043]

Based on the identified homology of the cefD and cefDZ proteins with known eukaryotic enzymes, a mechanism for the A. chrysogenum two-component epimerization system which is different from the epimerization found in prokaryotes has been established <2002JBC46216>. Therefore, it was suggested that the cephalosporin biosynthesis pathway begins with the activation of the substrate isopenicillin N to its CoA, followed by an epimerization to the D-enantiomer, namely penicillinyl-CoA. Next, the required hydrolysis of the CoA-thioesters seems to occur in a nonstereoselective manner by different thioesterases. The resulting product, penicillin N, is the direct precursor of all cephalosporins and cephamycins. [Pg.132]

The second major group of P-lactam antibiotics includes cephalosporins and cephamycins. The analog X is H are cephalosporins, and those X is OCH3 are called cephamycins. [Pg.356]
