Abstract excerpt
Analysis of the three-dimensional structure of class A beta-lactamases suggests that deformation of the substrate binding site can be produced by changes in the hydrophobicity of residue 69 behind the beta-sheet and by outward movement of the B3 beta-strand by introduction of a non-glycine residue at position 242 on the B4 beta-strand. By site-directed mutagenesis Met69-IleGly242-Cys, a double mutant, of the...
