    Notes: Abstract Vancomycin is the archetype among naturally occurring compounds known as glycopeptide antibiotics. Because it is a vital therapeutic agent used worldwide for the treatment of infections with gram-positive bacteria, emerging bacterial resistance to vancomycin is a major public health threat. Recent investigations into the mechanisms of action of glycopeptide antibiotics are driven by a need to understand their detailed mechanism of action so that new agents can be developed to overcome resistance. These investigations have revealed that glycopeptide antibiotics exhibit a rich array of complex cooperative phenomena when they bind target ligands, making them valuable model systems for the study of molecular recognition.

    Notes: The antimicrobial activity of vancomycin and related glycopeptide antibiotics is due to stereospecific recognition of polypeptide components in bacterial cell walls. To better understand how these antibiotics recognize polypeptide determinants, we have developed dynamic models of the complexes formed by the vancomycin aglycon and two different dipeptide ligands, Ac-D-ala-D-ala and Ac-D-ala-gly. Molecular dynamics simulations of the two complexes, initially conditioned with distance constraints derived from two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) studies, are conformationally stable and propagate in a manner consistent with the NMR-derived constraints after the constraints are removed. Free energy calculations accurately predict the relative binding affinity of these two complexes and help validate the simulation models for detailed structural analysis. Although the two ligands adopt similar conformations when bound to the antibiotic, there are clear differences in the configuration of intermolecular hydrogen bonds, the overall shape of the antibiotic, and other structural features of the two complexes. This analysis illustrates how complex structural and dynamic factors interrelate and contribute to differences in binding affinity. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: When calculating free energy differences between two molecular systems by means of molecular dynamics simulation, accessory potential functions can help eliminate uninteresting configurational entropy contributions, improve convergence, and facilitate reversibility. In this work, we demonstrate that the use of a harmonic potential function to restrain key portions of a molecular system in a free energy perturbation dual-topology molecular dynamics approach dramatically improves convergence and precision of the calculation. Limitations of this technique are illustrated, and its use in conjunction with a fixed bond-length constraint is developed.   © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.   J Comput Chem 19: 1278-1283, 1998
