Abstract excerpt
Aminoglycoside 3'-phosphotransferase [APH(3')s] provide an important means for high-level resistance to neomycin- and kanamycin-type aminoglycoside antibiotics. A four-step purification which affords milligram quantities of homogeneous APH(3') type IIa [APH(3')-IIa] is described. The kinetic parameters for the turnover of five substrates by the enzyme were determined, and the pH dependence and metal activation...
