Engineering the Stereochemistry of Cephalosporin for Specific Detection of Pathogenic Carbapenemase‐Expressing Bacteria
24 Apr 2014
Abstract excerpt
Reported herein is the design of fluorogenic probes specific for carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) and they were designed based on stereochemically modified cephalosporin having a 6,7-trans configuration. Through experiments using recombinant β-lactamase enzymes and live bacterial species, these probes demonstrate the potential for use in the specific detection of carbapenemases, including...
