“…The omadacycline C4-epimer (inversion of stereochemistry at carbon-4), which is pharmacologically inactive, was the only prominent additional chromatographic peak seen and was also present in the dose solution. Reversible epimerization at the 4-position is a well-known phenomenon for members of this antibiotic class and has been attributed to a variety of factors, such as pH, solvent and temperature (Nelson, 2001). The absence of metabolites with omadacycline is in contrast to the major in vivo biotransformation reactions in humans for tigecycline, a structurally similar glycylcycline antibiotic, where both amide hydrolysis of the glycinecontaining side chain and glucuronidation of the phenol nearest the side chain occur in vitro and in vivo (Hoffmann et al, 2007).…”

“…The chemical and radiochemical purity was !90% (with no unspecified impurity >1.0%) as verified by high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). The major impurity was the omadacycline C4-epimer (a common impurity for this class of molecule (Nelson, 2001), with several trace impurities as described later.…”

“…Tetracyclines bind to bacterial ribosomes, interfering with the association of aminoacyl-tRNAs with ribosomes (13,43). Due to their efficacy against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria and low toxicity for eukaryotic cells, tetracycline is used in a long list of human clinical and nonclinical applications for controlling bacterial growth (13).…”

“…Moreover, they report that this biosensor predominantly responds to zwitterionic tetracycline, which highlight the role of pH in the biological activity of this antibiotic. Tetracycline complexation by calcium changes the neutral keto-tautomer required for membrane crossing to a charged enol form essential for ribosomal docking (Nelson, 2001;Zakeri and Wright, 2008).…”

“…This phenomenon, as well as tetracycline complexation by divalent cations (Chopra and Roberts, 2001), is susceptible to charge number and type of charges (Nelson, 2001). In relation to this, Zhang et al (2014) showed recently that tetracycline uptake by E. coli MT102-PIR/pUTtetgfp decreases ca.…”
