CAS 9073-60-3: β-Lactamase
Description:β-Lactamase is an enzyme that plays a crucial role in antibiotic resistance, particularly against β-lactam antibiotics such as penicillins and cephalosporins. It is produced by various bacteria, including both Gram-positive and Gram-negative species. The primary function of β-lactamase is to hydrolyze the β-lactam ring of these antibiotics, rendering them ineffective and allowing bacteria to survive in the presence of these drugs. The enzyme exhibits a range of characteristics, including its ability to vary in specificity and activity depending on the bacterial strain and the type of β-lactam antibiotic. β-Lactamases can be classified into different groups based on their molecular structure and mechanism of action, including serine β-lactamases and metallo-β-lactamases. The presence of β-lactamase genes in bacterial populations is a significant concern in clinical settings, as it contributes to the growing issue of antibiotic resistance, making infections harder to treat. Understanding the mechanisms and characteristics of β-lactamases is essential for developing new strategies to combat antibiotic-resistant infections.
