An extended reservoir of class-D beta-lactamases in non-clinical bacterial strains
2022-01-21
Abstract excerpt
Bacterial genes coding for antibiotic resistance represent a major issue in the fight against bacterial pathogens. Among those, genes encoding beta-lactamases target penicillin and related compounds such as carbapenems, which are critical for human health. Beta-lactamases are classified into classes A, B, C and D, based on their amino acid sequence. Class D enzymes are also known as OXA beta-lactamases, due to the...
