Molecular dynamics and molecular docking studies on E166A point mutant, R274N/R276N double mutant, and E166A/R274N/R276N triple mutant forms of class A β-lactamases.

Abstract excerpt

Bacterial resistance to β-lactams antibiotics is a serious threat to human health. The most common cause of resistance to the β-lactams is the production of β-lactamase that inactivates β-lactams. Specifically, class A extended-spectrum β-lactamase produced by antibiotic resistant bacteria is capable of hydrolyzing extended-spectrum Cephalosporins and Monobactams. Mutations in class A β-lactamases play a crucial...
