Abstract: The ribosome is an essential drug target as many classes of 
clinically important antibiotics bind and inhibit its functional centers. The 
catalytic peptidyl transferase center (PTC) is targeted by the broadest array 
of inhibitors belonging to several chemical classes. One of the most abundant 
and clinically prevalent mechanisms of resistance to PTC-acting drugs is 
C8-methylation of the universally conserved adenine residue 2503 (A2503) of the 
23S rRNA by the Cfr methyltransferase. Another clinically relevant mechanism of 
resistance to macrolides and PTC-acting lincosamides is N6-dimethylation of the 
23S rRNA nucleotide A2058 by the Erm methyltransferases. Recently, we reported 
design conception, chemical synthesis, and microbiological evaluation of the 
bridged macrobicyclic antibiotic cresomycin (CRM), which overcomes 
evolutionarily diverse forms of antimicrobial resistance, including Cfr and 
Erm, that render modern antibiotics ineffective. CRM exhibits in vitro and in 
vivo efficacy against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, including 
multidrug-resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and 
Pseudomonas aeruginosa. We show that CRM is highly preorganized for ribosomal 
binding by determining its DFT-calculated, solution-state, solid-state, and 
(wild-type) ribosome-bound structures, which all align identically within the 
macrobicyclic subunits. Finally, by determining two additional X-ray crystal 
structures of CRM in complex with bacterial ribosomes modified by the rRNA 
methylases, Cfr and Erm, respectively, we provide the structural bases for 
engagement of Cfr- and Erm-methylated ribosomes by CRM. Our structures reveal 
unexpected concessive adjustments by the target that permit CRM to maintain 
binding where other antibiotics fail.
