Identifying Oxacillinase-48 Carbapenemase Inhibitors Using DNA-Encoded Chemical Libraries

Abstract excerpt

Abstract Bacterial resistance to β-lactam antibiotics is largely mediated by β-lactamases, which catalyze the hydrolysis of these drugs and continue to emerge in response to antibiotic use. β-Lactamases that hydrolyze the last resort carbapenem class of β-lactam antibiotics (carbapenemases) are a growing global health threat. Inhibitors have been developed to prevent β-lactamase-mediated hydrolysis and restore...
