Production of metallo-β-lactamase among Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains isolated in the State of Sergipe, Brazil [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: Acquired production of metallo-β-lactamases is an important mechanism of resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The objective of this study was to investigate the production of metallo-β-lactamase and the genetic diversity among ceftazidime ...

The flavonoid galangin inhibits the L1 metallo-β-lactamase fromStenotrophomonas maltophilia [PDF]
The flavonoid galangin inhibits the partially purified metallo-beta-lactamase from Stenotrophomonas maltophilia. The effect was not reversed by the addition of ZnCl(2) suggesting that the inhibitory effect is not related to metal chelation. The flavonoid quercetin also has some inhibitory effect against the enzyme.

Affimer Inhibition of Verona Integron-encoded Metallo-β-Lactamase 1 [PDF]
Metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) are a class of enzyme that hydrolyse the β-lactam ring in β-lactam antibiotics through their active site Zn2+ rendering them inactive. Verona Integron-encoded metallo-β-lactamase 1 (VIM-1) is a class B1, group 3, carbapenemase

Isolation and partial purification of a carbapenem-hydrolysing metallo-β-lactamase fromPseudomonas cepacia [PDF]
A metallo-beta-lactamase has been isolated from a clinical strain of Pseudomonas cepacia and partially purified using Cibacron blue F3GA coupled agarose. The resulting preparation showed a single band of beta-lactamase activity (pI 8.45) after analytical isoelectric focusing.

Inhibition of IMP-1 metallo-β-lactamase and sensitization of IMP-1-producing bacteria by thioester derivatives [PDF]
IMP-1 metallo-beta-lactamase is a transferable carbapenem-hydrolyzing enzyme found in some clinical isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Serratia marcescens and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Bacteria that express IMP-1 show significantly reduced sensitivity to carbapenems and other beta-lactam antibiotics.

Characterization of the active-site residues asparagine 167 and lysine 161 of the IMP-1 metallo β-lactamase [PDF]
The roles of lysine at position 161 and asparagine at position 167 in IMP-1 metallo beta-lactamase were studied by site-directed mutagenesis. These residues are highly conserved in metallo beta-lactamases and are thought to be present in the active-site cavity.
