Production of metallo-β-lactamase among Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains isolated in the State of Sergipe, Brazil

Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2015
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 ...

Detection of bla NDM-1 Encoding Imepenemase among the Imipenem-Resistant Gram-Negative Bacilli Isolated from Various Clinical Samples at a Tertiary Care Hospital of Eastern Nepal: A Descriptive Cross-Sectional Study

International Journal of Microbiology, 2020
Background. Carbapenem resistance among Gram-negative isolates caused by the production of the metallo-β-lactamase (MBL) enzyme is being increasingly reported worldwide. One of the newly emerged metallo-β-lactamases is New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase. Data

Draft Genome Sequences of Four NDM-1-Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae Strains from a Health Care Facility in Northern California. [PDF]

, 2015
We report the draft genome sequences of Klebsiella pneumoniae strains from four patients at a northern California health care facility. All strains contained the New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase (NDM1) carbapenemase with extended antibiotic resistance ...

Occurrence of a new metallo-β-lactamase IMP-4 carried on a conjugative plasmid inCitrobacter youngaefrom the People's Republic of China [PDF]

FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2001
During the course of an antimicrobial resistance surveillance programme in Guangzhou, the People's Republic of China, single strains of Citrobacter youngae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa were identified which were resistant to imipenem and found to carry the carbapenemase gene bla(IMP).

Biochemical characterization of the carbapenem-hydrolyzing β-lactamase AsbM1 fromAeromonas sobriaAER 14M: a member of a novel subgroup of metallo-β-lactamases [PDF]

FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1996
AsbM1, a carbapenem-hydrolyzing beta-lactamase produced by Aeromonas sobria AER 14M, was purified chromatographically, with anion exchange chromatography performed in the absence of Zn2+. The molecular mass of AsbM1 was approximately 34,000; the isoelectric point was 9.1.

Discovery of Taniborbactam (VNRX-5133): A Broad-Spectrum Serine- and Metallo-β-lactamase Inhibitor for Carbapenem-Resistant Bacterial Infections

Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 2019
A major resistance mechanism in Gram-negative bacteria is the production of β-lactamase enzymes. Originally recognized for their ability to hydrolyze penicillins, emergent β-lactamases can now confer resistance to other β-lactam drugs, including both ...

Resistance to carbapenems in non-typhoidal Salmonella enterica serovars from humans, animals and food [PDF]

, 2018
Non-typhoidal serovars of Salmonella enterica (NTS) are a leading cause of food-borne disease in animals and humans worldwide. Like other zoonotic bacteria, NTS have the potential to act as reservoirs and vehicles for the transmission of antimicrobial ...

Prevalence and detection of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia carrying metallo-β-lactamase blaL1 in Beijing, China [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014
Intrinsic β-lactam resistance in Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is caused by bla L1 and/or bla L2, a kind of metallo-β-lactamase with a broad substrate spectrum including carbapenems. A rapid and sensitive molecular method for the detection of bla L1 in clinical samples is needed to guide therapeutic treatment. In present study, we first described a loop-

The reaction mechanism of metallo-beta-lactamases is tuned by the conformation of an active site mobile loop [PDF]

, 2018
Carbapenems are "last resort" β-lactam antibiotics used to treat serious and life-threatening health care-associated infections caused by multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria.

Detection of metallo-β-lactamase gene blaIMP of Escherichia coli clinical isolates in Sanglah General Hospital Bali

Indonesia Journal of Biomedical Science, 2019
Background: Escherichia coli belong to the family of Enterobacteriaceae that are responsible as one of the leading cause of nosocomial infections. The emergence of Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae presents therapeutic challenges for clinicians on choosing the correct type of antibiotics to prescribe.
