Zn(II) mediates vancomycin polymerization and potentiates its antibiotic activity against resistant bacteria

Vancomycin is known to bind to Zn(II) and can induce a zinc starvation response in bacteria. Here we identify a novel polymerization of vancomycin dimers by structural analysis of vancomycin-Zn(II) crystals and fibre X-ray diffraction. Bioassays indicate that this structure is associated with an inc...
