Interactions between Avibactam and Ceftazidime-Hydrolyzing Class D β-Lactamases

Biomolecules, 2020
Class D β-lactamases exhibit very heterogeneous hydrolysis activity spectra against the various types of clinically useful β-lactams. Similarly, and according to the available data, their sensitivities to inactivation by avibactam can vary by a

Genome sequences of nine gram-negative vaginal bacterial isolates [PDF]

, 2016
The vagina is home to a wide variety of bacteria that have great potential to impact human health. Here, we announce reference strains (now available through BEI Resources) and draft genome sequences for 9 Gram-negative vaginal isolates from the taxa ...

Metallohelices that kill Gram-negative pathogens using intracellular antimicrobial peptide pathways [PDF]

, 2019
A range of new water-compatible optically pure metallohelices – made by self-assembly of simple non-peptidic organic components around Fe ions – exhibit similar architecture to some natural cationic antimicrobial peptides (CAMPs) and are found to have ...

Human platelet activation by Escherichia coli: roles for FcγRIIA and integrin αIIbβ3 [PDF]

, 2016
Gram-negative Escherichia coli cause diseases such as sepsis and hemolytic uremic syndrome in which thrombotic disorders can be found. Direct platelet–bacterium interactions might contribute to some of these conditions; however, mechanisms of human ...

IS26-Mediated Transfer of blaNDM–1 as the Main Route of Resistance Transmission During a Polyclonal, Multispecies Outbreak in a German Hospital

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
One of the most demanding challenges in infection control is the worldwide dissemination of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria in clinical settings. Especially the increasing prevalence of carbapenemase producing Gram-negative pathogens poses an urgent ...
