摘要: Bacterial diseases caused substantial yield losses worldwide, with the rise of antibiotic resistance, there is a critical need for alternative antibacterial compounds. Natural products (NPs) from microorganisms have emerged as promising candidates due to their potential as cost-effective and environmentally friendly bactericides. However, the precise mechanisms underlying the antibacterial activity of many NPs, including Guvermectin (GV), remain poorly understood. Here, we sought to explore how GV interacts with Guanosine 5 ' monophosphate synthetase (GMPs), an enzyme crucial in bacterial guanine synthesis. We employed a combination of biochemical and genetic approaches, enzyme activity assays, site-directed mutagenesis, bio-layer interferometry, and molecular docking assays to assess GV's antibacterial activity and its mechanism targeting GMPs. The results showed that GV effectively inhibits GMPs, disrupting bacterial guanine synthesis. This was confirmed through drug-resistant assays and direct enzyme inhibition studies. Bio-layer interferometry assays demonstrated specific binding of GV to GMPs, with dependency on Xanthosine 5 '-monophosphate. Site-directed mutagenesis identified key residues crucial for the GV-GMP interaction. This study elucidates the antibacterial mechanism of GV, highlighting its potential as a biocontrol agent in agriculture. These findings contribute to the development of novel antibacterial agents and underscore the importance of exploring natural products for agricultural disease management.
