Structure-based design, synthesis and A-site rRNA co-crystal complexes of novel amphiphilic aminoglycoside antibiotics with new binding modes: a synergistic hydrophobic effect against resistant bacteria.
Incorporation of an hydrophobic (phenethylamino)ethyl ether at C2″ of N1-(HABA)-3',4'-dideoxyparomomycin led to a novel analog with an excellent antibacterial profile against a host of resistant bacteria.
