Characterisation of the vibrio cholerae antibiotic resistance var operon [PDF]
The discovery and use of antibiotics in the chemotherapy of bacterial infections has revolutionised medicine as it is today. Unfortunately, the progressive use of antibiotics has promoted the evolution of bacterial defences against these mediators and ...

"Golden Era of Antibiotics" - Coming to an end !!!
Resistance to antibiotics is increasing at an alarming rate. This is due to superbugs, producing heterogenous groups of enzymes, β-lactamases which inactivate β-lactam antibiotics and others as well.

Mechanistic and Spectroscopic Studies of Metallo-β-lactamase NDM-1
In an effort to biochemically characterize metallo-β-lactamase NDM-1, we cloned, overexpressed, purified, and characterized several maltose binding protein (MBP)–NDM-1 fusion proteins with different N-termini (full-length, Δ6, Δ21, and Δ36).

New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase (NDM-1) is the most recent addition to the class of metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs). This enzyme leads to antibiotic resistance in clinical treatments owing to its exertion of hydrolysis activity in almost all clinically ...
