Variants of β-Lactamase KPC-2 That Are Resistant to Inhibition by Avibactam [PDF]
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2015 ABSTRACT KPC-2 is the most prevalent class A carbapenemase in the world. Previously, KPC-2 was shown to hydrolyze the β-lactamase inhibitors clavulanic acid, sulbactam, and tazobactam. In addition, substitutions at amino acid position R220 in the KPC-2 β-lactamase increased resistance to clavulanic acid.

Importation of KPC-2-producing Escherichia coli from India [PDF]
Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2011 Sir, The production of carbapenem-hydrolysing b-lactamases is increasingly reported in Enterobacteriaceae. Among the different types of carbapenemases, the emergence of the Ambler class A KPC-type b-lactamases is of great concern, since those enzymes hydrolyse all b-lactams with the exception of cephamycins.

KPC-2 carbapenemase-producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa reaching Germany [PDF]
Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2018 Antimicrobial resistance due to carbapenemase expression poses a worldwide threat in healthcare. Inter-genus exchange of genetic information is of utmost importance in this context.Here, to the best of our knowledge, we describe the first detection and characterization of a KPC-2-producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa in Germany.Characterization of the ...
