The molybdenum-responsive ModE regulatory protein from Escherichia coli has been purified and used in crystallization trials. Two crystal forms have been observed. Form I is tetragonal, P41212 (or enantiomorph), with a = b = 72.3, c = 246.2 Å and diffracts to medium resolution. Form II is orthorhombic, P21212, with a = 82.8, b = 127.9, c = 64.0 Å and diffraction has been observed beyond 2.8 Å resolution. Structural analysis, in combination with ongoing biochemical characterization, will assist the elucidation of the structure–activity relationship in regulating the uptake of molybdate in bacteria.

Aim: Due to antibiotic resistance and the lack of investment in antimicrobial R&D, quantitative structure–activity relationship (SAR) methods appear as an ideal approach for the discovery of new antibiotics. Result & methodology: Molecular topology and linear discriminant analysis were used to construct a model to predict activity against Escherichia coli. This model establishes new SARs, of which, molecular size and complexity ( Nclass), stand out for their discriminant power. This model was used for the virtual screening of the Index Merck database, with results showing a high success rate as well as a moderate restriction. Conclusion: The model efficiently finds new active compounds. The topological index Nclass can act as a filter in other quantitative structure–activity relationship models predicting activity against E. coli.
