Abstract excerpt
In class C beta-lactamases, the strictly conserved Asn152 forms part of an extended active-site hydrogen-bonding network. To probe its role in catalysis, all 19 mutants of Enterobacter cloacae P99 cephalosporinase Asn152 were simultaneously constructed and screened in Escherichia coli for their in vivo activity. The screen identified the previously uncharacterized mutants Asn152Ser, Asn152Thr, and Asn152Gly,...
