Phenotypic characterization of beta-lactamases producing Gram-negative bacteria in a tertiary hospital, Nepal

open access: yesNepal Journal of Biotechnology, 2019
Infections caused by beta-lactamases producing Gram-negative bacteria are increasing, thus posing a challenge to the management of such infections.

Antimicrobial Resistance in Children With Bloodstream Infections: A Population‐Based Study in Stockholm, Sweden

open access: yesActa Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim We retrospectively evaluated trends in antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in paediatric bloodstream infections and assessed changes in antimicrobial prescription patterns over a 20‐year period. Methods We analysed positive blood cultures from children admitted with suspected serious infection between 1998 and 2018.

Identification of group specific motifs in Beta-lactamase family of proteins

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Science, 2009
Background Beta-lactamases are one of the most serious threats to public health. In order to combat this threat we need to study the molecular and functional diversity of these enzymes and identify signatures specific to these enzymes.

Catalytic Properties of Class a Beta-Lactamases: Efficiency and Diversity [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
peer reviewedbeta-Lactamases are the main cause of bacterial resistance to penicillins, cephalosporins and related beta-lactam compounds. These enzymes inactivate the antibiotics by hydrolysing the amide bond of the beta-lactam ring.

Carriage of antimicrobial‐resistant E. coli in urban stray cats (Felis catus)

open access: yesAustralian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in Escherichia coli is a growing concern in both human and veterinary medicine, driven by the inappropriate use of antimicrobials. Companion animals may act as community reservoirs and sentinels for antimicrobial‐resistant bacteria due to their close contact with humans and other animals.

Detection of zoonotic bacteria in wild Australian freshwater turtles

open access: yesAustralian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Freshwater turtles are long‐lived, abundant components of Australian aquatic ecosystems, yet little is known about the diversity and prevalence of zoonotic bacteria they may carry. In this study, we conducted one of the most comprehensive surveys to date of zoonotic microorganisms associated with wild Australian freshwater turtles.

Acute thrombocytosis in a patient treated with ertapenem

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Case Reports in Internal Medicine
Ertapenem, a carbapenem-type beta-lactam antibiotic, demonstrates broad-spectrum efficacy against a wide range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, including aerobes and anaerobes.

The impact of long-distance mutations on the Ω-loop conformation in TEM type β-lactamases

open access: yes, 2019
β-lactamases are hydrolytic enzymes primarily responsible for occurrence and abundance of bacteria resistant to β-lactam antibiotics. TEM type β-lactamases are formed by the parent enzyme TEM-1 and more than two hundred of its mutants.

Targeting protein–protein interactions with reversible covalent modalities: Non‐cysteine chemistries

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Protein–protein interactions (PPIs) are central to diverse cellular functions, and represent a rapidly expanding class of therapeutic targets. Advancements in covalent drug design have enabled small‐molecule drugs to overcome challenges associated with engaging these targets, such as limited durations of action and difficult‐to‐drug (expansive,
