Molecular Basis of Selective Inhibition and Slow Reversibility of Avibactam against Class D Carbapenemases: A Structure-Guided Study of OXA-24 and OXA-48
19 Nov 2014
Abstract excerpt
The Class D (or OXA-type) β-lactamases have expanded to be the most diverse group of serine β-lactamases with a highly heterogeneous β-lactam hydrolysis profile and are typically resistant to marketed β-lactamase inhibitors. Class D enzymes are increasingly found in multidrug resistant (MDR) Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and various species of the Enterobacteriaceae and are posing a serious...
