Structure and dynamics of <i>Burkholderia pseudomallei</i> OXA-57, a distinctive low efficiency class D β-lactamase with carbapenem-hydrolyzing activity
2024-12-23
Abstract excerpt
The Gram-negative bacterium Burkholderia pseudomallei causes the severe disease melioidosis. β-Lactams, including carbapenems, are the primary treatment, but are susceptible to chromosomal β-lactamases, including the class D enzyme OXA-57. Here we show recombinant OXA-57 is active towards penicillins and first-generation cephalosporins, slowly hydrolyzes carbapenems including imipenem and meropenem, but is inacti...
