A method to transform the β-lactam antibiotic producerStreptomyces wadayamensis [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 1986
We have developed a transformation system for Streptomyces wadayamensis, a cephamycin C producer. 1−5 × 109 protoplasts can be obtained when late logarithmic phase cultures of this microorganisms are incubated with 10 mg/ml of lysozyme. Polyethylene glycol-Ca2+-mediated transformation of these protoplasts yielded 106 transformants per μg of pIJ702 or ...

Identification of the Extracytoplasmic Function σ Factor σP Regulon in Bacillus thuringiensis

open access: yesmSphere, 2022
Bacillus thuringiensis and other members of the Bacillus cereus family are resistant to many β-lactams. Resistance is dependent upon the extracytoplasmic function sigma factor σP.

Spherical and rod shaped protoplasts from β-lactam antibiotic treated cultures of Bacillus subtilis [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 1988
Addition of β-lactams to exponentially growing cultures of an autolytically deficient Bacillus subtilis metc3 lyt-2 strain FJ6 caused increase in optical density to stop after 1 h when it had about doubled, and thereafter to remain constant for at least 6 h.

Initiation of murein biosynthesis inEscherichia colicells treated with β-lactam antibiotics [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 1987
The study of the synthesis and accumulation of murein in cells initiating growth in the presence of β-lactam antibiotics indicated: (i) Murein rearrangement contributes substantially to cell enlargement during the first doubling in cell mass; (ii) Penicillin-binding protein 2 has the potential capability to synthesize most, if not all, the new murein ...

Novel Cassette Assay To Quantify the Outer Membrane Permeability of Five β-Lactams Simultaneously in Carbapenem-Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae and Enterobacter cloacae

open access: yesmBio, 2020
Poor penetration through the outer membrane (OM) of Gram-negative bacteria is a major barrier of antibiotic development. While β-lactam antibiotics are commonly used against Klebsiella pneumoniae and Enterobacter cloacae, there are limited data on OM ...

NMR spectrometric assay for determining enzymatic hydrolysis of β-lactam antibiotics with bacteria in aqueous solution [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 1984
An application of a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrometer for the measurement of β-lactamase activity in clinical material containing bacteria is presented. By means of proton (1H)-NMR, it was easy to measure quantitatively β-lactamase activity in human bacteriuria, without performing any such pretreatment as isolation of bacteria or extraction

β-lactam Resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa: Current Status, Future Prospects

open access: yesPathogens, 2021
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a major opportunistic pathogen, causing a wide range of acute and chronic infections. β-lactam antibiotics including penicillins, carbapenems, monobactams, and cephalosporins play a key role in the treatment of P.

New Carbapenemase Inhibitors: Clearing the Way for the β-Lactams

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
Carbapenem resistance is a major global health problem that seriously compromises the treatment of infections caused by nosocomial pathogens. Resistance to carbapenems mainly occurs via the production of carbapenemases, such as VIM, IMP, NDM, KPC and OXA,
