Abstract excerpt
The catalytic properties of six "natural" mutants of the TEM-1 beta-lactamase have been studied in detail, with special emphasis on their activity versus third-generation cephalosporins. On the basis of the recently determined high-resolution structure of the wild-type enzyme, and of the substrates' structures optimized by the AMI quantum chemistry method, we have attempted to explain the influences of the...
