Clinical variants of the native class d beta-lactamase of acinetobacter baumannii pose an emerging threat through ıncreased hydrolytic activity against carbapenems
Schroder, Emma C.; Klamer, Zachary L.; Saral, Ayşegül; Sugg, Kyle A.; June, Cynthia M.; Wymore, Troy; Szarecka, Agnieszka; Leonard, David A. (Amer Soc Microbiology, 2016)The threat posed by the chromosomally encoded class D beta-lactamase of Acinetobacter baumannii (OXA-51/66) has been unclear, in part because of its relatively low affinity and turnover rate for carbapenems. Several hundred ... -
Comparison of verona integron-borne metallo-β-lactamase (VIM) variants reveals differences in stability and inhibition profiles
Makena, Anne; Düzgün, Azer Özad; Brem, Jurgen; McDonough, Michael A.; Rydzik, Anna M.; Abboud, Martine I.; Çopur Çiçek, Ayşegül; Sandallı, Cemal; Schofield, Christopher J. (Amer Soc Microbiology, 2015)Metallo-beta-lactamases (MBLs) are of increasing clinical significance; the development of clinically useful MBL inhibitors is challenged by the rapid evolution of variant MBLs. The Verona integron-borne metallo-beta-lactamase ... -
