Metabolite Identification
Common Namestreptidine
DescriptionStreptidine is a member of the aminoglycoside class of antibiotics, primarily known as a metabolite of streptomycin. Its chemical structure includes a guanidino group, which plays a crucial role in its interaction with biological systems. Streptidine is involved in various biochemical pathways, notably in the context of antibiotic activity and resistance mechanisms. For instance, it acts as a "decoy acceptor" for the aminoglycoside-inactivating enzyme adenyl transferase, thereby rescuing the antibiotic activity of streptomycin against resistant strains of Escherichia coli (PMID:17609790 ). Additionally, streptidine has been detected in blood samples from elderly patients, indicating its metabolic relevance (PMID:22423580 ). Analytical methods have been developed for the simultaneous determination of streptomycin and streptidine in compound feeds, emphasizing its importance in monitoring antibiotic residues (PMID:27697730 ). Furthermore, studies involving NMR-pH titrations have provided insights into the proton-binding processes of streptidine, contributing to the understanding of its chemical behavior (PMID:22079046 ). Overall, streptidine's structural characteristics and its role in antibiotic activity highlight its significance in both chemistry and microbiology.
