The VIM-2 metallo-beta-lactamase enzyme from Pseudomonas aeruginosa catalyzes the hydrolysis of most P-lactam antibiotics including carbapenems, and there are currently no potent inhibitors of such enzymes. We found rac-2-omega-phenylpropyl-3-mercaptopropionic acid, phenylC3SH, to be a potent inhibitor of VIM-2. The structure of the VIM-2-phenylC3SH complex was determined by X-ray crystallography to 2.3 angstrom. The structure revealed that the thiol group of phenylC3SH bridged to the two zinc(II) ions and the phenyl group interacted with Tyr67(47) on loop I near the active site, by pi-pi stacking interactions. The methylene group interacted with Phe61(42) located at the bottom of loop1 through CH-pi interactions. Dynamic movements were observed in Arg228(185) and Asn233(190) on loop2, compared with the native structure (PDB. code: 1KO3). These results suggest that the above-mentioned four residues play important roles in the binding and recognition of inhibitors or substrates and in stabilizing a loop in the VIM-2 enzyme.
