Metallo-beta-lactamases (classification, activity, genetic organization, structure, zinc coordination) and their superfamily [PDF]
peer reviewedOne strategy employed by bacterial strains to resist beta-lactam antibiotics is the expression of metallo-beta-lactamases requiring Zn+2 for activity.

Exploring Protein Sequence Space Using Computationally Directed Recombination [PDF]
Evolution has provided us with many protein sequences. However, these sequences represent a very small fraction of the possible sequences. In the laboratory, scientists have explored areas of sequence space not represented by natural proteins both to ...

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

The Mechanisms of Catalysis by Metallo β-Lactamases [PDF]
Class B β-lactamases or metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) require zinc ions to catalyse the hydrolysis of β-lactam antibiotics such as penicillins, cephalosporins, carbapenems, and cephamycins.

Kinetic properties of four plasmid-mediated AmpC beta-lactamases.
peer reviewedThe heterologous production in Escherichia coli, the purification, and the kinetic characterization of four plasmid-encoded class C beta-lactamases (ACT-1, MIR-1, CMY-2, and CMY-1) were performed.

Successful Management of Urosepsis with Ceftriaxone+Sulbactam+EDTA: A Case Report of Penem Sparing Approach [PDF]
Over the past decade, the Anti-Microbial Resistance (AMR) among members of Enterobacteriaceae family is on rise mainly due to rapid spread of strains producing Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamases (ESBLs) and Metallo Beta-Lactamases (MBLs).

The .BETA.-lactamases of genus Bacteroides.
Two hundred anaerobic isolates from clinical specimens were examined for beta-lactamase production by Nitrocefin methodology. Altogether, 77 strains were beta-lactamase producers. Organisms belonging to Bacteroides melaninogenicus group, i.e., B. intermedius and B.

The objective of this study was to correlate resistance mutations of extended spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL) and AmpC beta-lactamases and virulence factors (VF) with 30-day mortality in patients treated with either piperacillin-tazobactam or carbapenems.

«Checkerboard Array» as a Test for Evaluation of Decrease in Gram-Negative Bacteria Resistance to Carbapenems in the Presence of Bisphosphonate [PDF]
One of the main mechanisms of resistance of Gramnegative microorganisms to antibiotics is enzymatic hydrolysis by beta-lactamases (for example, metallobeta-lactamases).
