[ 1 ] - Quantum Mechanical Approach for the Catalytic Mechanism of Dinuclear Zinc Metallo-β-lactamase by Penicillin and Cephalexin: Kinetic and Thermodynamic Points of View

Metallo-β-lactamases (MβL) catalyzing the hydrolytic cleavage of the four-membered β-lactam ring in broad spectrum of antibiotics and therefore inactivating the drug; However, the mechanism of these enzymes is still not well understood. Electronic structure and electronic energy of metallo-β-lactamase active center, two inhibitors of this enzyme including penicillin and cephalexin, and differen...
