Bacterial Dehydrogenases Facilitate Oxidative Inactivation and Bioremediation of Chloramphenicol
10 Nov 2022
Abstract excerpt
Antimicrobial resistance represents a major threat to human health and knowledge of the underlying mechanisms is therefore vital. Here, we report the discovery and characterization of oxidoreductases that inactivate the broad-spectrum antibiotic chloramphenicol via dual oxidation of the C3-hydroxyl group. Accordingly, chloramphenicol oxidation either depends on standalone glucose-methanol-choline (GMC)-type...
