Abstract excerpt
A number of carbapenem derivatives were examined to determine the structure-activity relationships required for dependence on porin protein D2 for activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa. As suggested by J. Trias and H. Nikaido (Antimicrob. Agents Chemother. 34:52-57, 1990), carbapenem derivatives, such as imipenem and meropenem, containing a sole basic group at position 2 of the molecule utilize the D2 channel...
