Abstract excerpt
The metallo-beta-lactamase betaLII from Bacillus cereus 569/H/9 was displayed on the filamentous phage fd. The phage-bound enzyme fd-betaLII was shown to be active on benzylpenicillin as substrate; it could be inactivated by complexation of the essential zinc(II) ion with EDTA and reactivated by addition of a zinc(II) salt. A selection process was designed to extract active phage-bound enzymes from libraries of...
