Deacetoxycephalosporin C synthase (expandase): Research progress and application potential

open access: yesSynthetic and Systems Biotechnology, 2021
Cephalosporins play an indispensable role against bacterial infections. Deacetyloxycephalosporin C synthase (DAOCS), also called expandase, is a key enzyme in cephalosporin biosynthesis that epoxides penicillin to form the hexavalent thiazide ring of ...

Effects of Inhibitors on the Catalysis and Immobilization of Cephalosporin C Acylase [PDF]

open access: yesChemical and Biochemical Engineering Quarterly, 2018
Numerous compounds, including weak bases (e.g., glucosamine, ethylenediamine, and pyridine) and weak acids (e.g., bicarbonate, acetate, propionate, and butyrate), were found to inhibit the catalysis of cephalosporin C acylase (CCA), which is a ...

Risk factors for colonization with multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria and Clostridioides difficile in Long Term Care Facilities (LTCFs) residents: the evidence from 27 facilities in a high endemic setting

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
IntroductionResidency in LTCFs increases the likelihood of colonization with multidrug resistant Gram-negative bacteria (MDR-GNB). We assessed the prevalence and risk factors for enteric colonization by III-generation cephalosporins-resistant and ...

Evolution of an acylase active on cephalosporin C [PDF]

open access: yesProtein Science, 2005
AbstractSemisynthetic cephalosporins are synthesized from 7‐amino cephalosporanic acid, which is produced by chemical deacylation or by a two‐step enzymatic process of the natural antibiotic cephalosporin C. The known acylases take glutaryl‐7‐amino cephalosporanic acid as a primary substrate, and their specificity and activity are too low for ...

The enzymatic conversion of exomethylene cephalosporin c into deacetyl cephalosporin c and the role of molecular oxygen in cephalosporin c biosynthesis

open access: yesTetrahedron, 1988
AbstractCell free extracts from Cephalosporium acremonium containing deacetoxy/deacetyl cephalosporin C synthetase activities are shown to convert exomethylene cephalosporin C (I) directly to deacetyl cephalosporin C (II), a precursor in the cephalosporin C (III) biosynthesis.

Transport systems, intracellular traffic of intermediates and secretion of β-lactam antibiotics in fungi

open access: yesFungal Biology and Biotechnology, 2020
Fungal secondary metabolites are synthesized by complex biosynthetic pathways catalized by enzymes located in different subcellular compartments, thus requiring traffic of precursors and intermediates between them. The β-lactam antibiotics penicillin and

Effect of Reduced Fluoroquinolone Use on Cephalosporin Use, Susceptibilities and Clostridioides difficile Infections

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2022
Background: Overuse of fluoroquinolones has led to concerning rates of resistance, particularly among Gram-negative organisms. They are also highly implicated as a risk factor for Clostridioides difficile infection, and reports of other serious adverse ...

7-AMINOCEPHALOSPORANIC ACID – PRODUCTION AND SEPARATION

open access: yesStudia Universitatis Babes-Bolyai Chemia, 2019
Cephalosporins, a large group of β-lactam antibiotics, contain a 7-aminocephalosporanic acid (7-ACA) nucleus which is derived from cephalosporin C, and substitutions of chemical groups or modifications of 7-ACA side-chains resulting in varying ...
