The intrinsic effect of three novel methoxyimino derivatives of cephalosporin (cefotaxime [syn HR 756]; its anti isomer, R 02 5328 A; and the syn S-oxide derivative, HR 109) on the biosynthesis of peptidoglycan of Pseudomonas aeruginosa X-48 was investigated. Cefotaxime at very low concentrations (50% inhibition at 0.025 microgram/ml) inhibited the transpeptidase reaction which catalyzes the incorporation and attachment of newly synthesized peptidoglycan to the preexisting cell wall sacculus. The S-oxide compound, HR 109, was a much less efficient inhibitor of this reaction (50% inhibition at 0.55 microgram/ml), whereas the anti isomer of cefotaxime, R 02 5328 A, had no inhibitory effect. All three compounds were quite similar in being relatively poor inhibitors of D-alanine carboxypeptidase.
