Structural compatibility between β‐lactams and substrate binding pockets of IMP‐1 and NDM‐1 determines the substrate spectrum

Bulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, EarlyView.
Chemical structures of three β‐lactam classes and the substrate‐binding pockets (SBPs) of B1 metallo‐β‐lactamases (MBLs) were compared. Structural compatibility between β‐lactams and MBL SBPs correlates with enzymatic activity, providing insights into the substrate spectrum of MBLs and β‐lactam resistance.
