Aspergillomarasmine A inhibits metallo-β-lactamases by selectively sequestering Zn2. [PDF]
Class B metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) are Zn2+-dependent enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of β-lactam antibiotics to confer resistance in bacteria. Several problematic groups of MBLs belong to subclass B1, including the binuclear New Delhi MBL (NDM ...

Metallo-β-lactamases and a tug-of-war for the available zinc at the host-pathogen interface. [PDF]
Metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) are zinc-dependent hydrolases that inactivate virtually all β-lactam antibiotics. The expression of MBLs by Gram-negative bacteria severely limits the therapeutic options to treat infections. MBLs bind the essential metal ions

Metallo-β-lactamases in the Age of Multidrug Resistance: From Structure and Mechanism to Evolution, Dissemination, and Inhibitor Design. [PDF]
Antimicrobial resistance is one of the major problems in current practical medicine. The spread of genes coding for resistance determinants among bacteria challenges the use of approved antibiotics, narrowing the options for treatment.

Relative inhibitory activities of the broad-spectrum β-lactamase inhibitor taniborbactam against metallo-β-lactamases. [PDF]
Taniborbactam (TAN) is a novel broad-spectrum β-lactamase inhibitor with significant activity against subclass B1 metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs). Here, we showed that TAN exhibited an overall excellent activity against B1 MBLs including most NDM- and VIM ...

Faropenem reacts with serine and metallo-β-lactamases to give multiple products. [PDF]
Penems have demonstrated potential as antibacterials and β-lactamase inhibitors; however, their clinical use has been limited, especially in comparison with the structurally related carbapenems.

Could β-Lactam Antibiotics Block Humoral Immunity?
It has been reported that treatment with β-lactam antibiotics induces leukopenia and candidemia, worsens the clinical response to anticancer immunotherapy and decreases immune response to vaccination.

Introduction: Infections are the major cause of morbidity and mortality in burn patients. The ESBL, MBL and AmpC are the major mediators of antimicrobial resistance in gram negative bacteria. Early detection of ESBL, MBL and AmpC β -lactamases is crucial

Specific Protein-Membrane Interactions Promote Packaging of Metallo-β-Lactamases into Outer Membrane Vesicles. [PDF]
Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) act as carriers of bacterial products such as plasmids and resistance determinants, including metallo-β-lactamases. The lipidated, membrane-anchored metallo-β-lactamase NDM-1 can be detected in Gram-negative OMVs.
