Triple therapy with amoxicillin, clarithromycin, and a proton-pump inhibitor is a common therapeutic strategy for the eradication of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori). However, frequent appearance of clarithromycin-resistant strains is a therapeutic challenge. While various quinones are known to specifically inhibit

Four independent menaquinone (vitamin K(2))-deficient mutants of Escherichia coli, blocked in the conversion of o-succinylbenzoate (OSB) to 1,4-dihydroxy-2-naphthoate (DHNA), were found to represent two distinct classes. Enzymatic complementation was observed when a cell-free extract of one mutant was mixed with

1,4-Dihydroxy-2-naphthoate:polyprenyltransferase was detected in the membrane fraction from Micrococcus luteus. The specificity of the enzyme ws so tolerant as regards the prenyl-donating substrate that prenyl pyrophosphates ranging in chain length from C15 to C45 were active as substrates. The monophosphate
