چکیده
A detailed kinetic study of the interactions between BRL 42715, a beta-lactamase-inhibiting penem, and various beta-lactamases (EC 3.5.2.6) and D-alanyl-D-alanine peptidases (DD-peptidases, EC 3.4.16.4) is presented. The compound was a very efficient inactivator of all active-site serine beta-lactamases but was hydrolyzed by the class B, Zn(2+)-containing enzymes, with very different kcat values. Inactivation of the Streptomyces sp. strain R61 extracellular DD-peptidase was not observed, and the Actinomadura sp. strain R39 DD-peptidase exhibited a low level of sensitivity to the compound.

Structure of PBP-A from Thermosynechococcus elongatus, a penicillin-binding protein closely related to class A beta-lactamases.
Molecular evolution has always been a subject of discussions, and researchers are interested in understanding how proteins with similar scaffolds can catalyze different reactions. In the superfamily of serine penicillin-recognizing enzymes, D-alanyl-D-alanine peptidases and beta-lactamases are phylogenetically linked but feature large differences of reactivity towards their respective substrate...
متن کاملInteraction between non-classical beta-lactam compounds and the Zn2+-containing G and serine R61 and R39 D-alanyl-D-alanine peptidases.
Streptomyces albus G secretes a Zn2+-containing D-alanyl-D-alanine peptidase. Streptomyces R61 and Actinomadura R39 secrete D-alanyl-D-alanine-cleaving serine peptidases. The effect of non-classical beta-lactam antibiotics on these three model enzymes has been studied. Mecillinam, cefoxitin, quinacillin, quinacillin sulphone, clavulanate and N-formimidoylthienamycin have no effect on the Zn2+-c...
متن کاملRoles of beta-lactamases and porins in activities of carbapenems and cephalosporins against Klebsiella pneumoniae.
Two clinical isolates of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae were noted to be less susceptible than expected to imipenem. Both were missing outer membrane proteins that serve as channels for antibiotic entry. The role of beta-lactamase in resistance was investigated by eliminating the original ESBL and introducing plasmids encoding various ESBLs and AmpC beta...
متن کاملDipeptidyl carboxypeptidase-deficient mutants of Salmonella typhimurium.
Mutants of Salmonella typhimurium deficient in dipeptidyl carboxypeptidase have been isolated by screening for clones unable to use N-acetyl-L-alanyl-L-alanyl-L-alanine (AcAla3) as the sole nitrogen source. An insertion of the transposable element Tn10 near dcp (the locus coding for dipeptidyl carboxypeptidase) has been isolated and used to map the locus in the interval between purB and trp, an...
