Burkholderia pseudomallei is the etiologic agent of melioidosis, a difficult-to-treat disease with diverse clinical manifestations. β-Lactam antibiotics such as ceftazidime are crucial to the success of melioidosis therapy. Ceftazidime-resistant clinical isolates have been described, and the most common mechanism is point mutations affecting expression or critical amino acid residues of the chr...
2. Pournaras S, Tsakris A, Maniati M, Tzouvelekis LS, Maniatis AN. Novel variant (bla(VIM-4)) of the metallo-β-lactamase gene bla(VIM-1) in a clinical strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Antimicrob Agents Chemother 2002;46:4026–8. 3. Toleman MA, Rolston K, Jones RN, Walsh TR. Molecular characterization of VIM-4, a novel metallo-β-lactamase isolated from Texas: report from the CANCER surveillance ...
The emergence of carbapenem resistance in Enterobacteriaceae has become a great concern. The aim of this study was to characterize ertapenem-resistant Enterobacter cloacae isolates from a Taiwanese university hospital. A total of 355 nonduplicated E. cloacae isolates collected in 2007 were analyzed by antimicrobial susceptibility testing with and without an inhibitor of efflux pumps and AmpC β-...
background beta-lactam resistance in gram-negative bacteria, especially escherichia coli, is a main clinical problem. it is often caused by the co-production of β-lactamases, particularly extended-spectrum β-lactamases (esbls) and ampc enzymes. it may lead to a problem for diagnosis via recommended phenotypic tests by the clinical and laboratory standards institute (clsi). conversely, β-lactama...
This study aimed to determine the prevalence of fecal carriage of extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) and/or plasmidic AmpC β-lactamase (pAmpC) producing Escherichia coli among dogs (n=428) in Turkey. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and sequencing were used to characterize genes encoding β-lactamase and plasmid mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR). Antimicrobial susceptibility testing and PCRs...
We have devised protein-folding sensors that link protein stability to TEM-1 β-lactamase activity. The addition of osmolytes and other compounds with chemical chaperone activity to the growth medium of bacteria containing these sensors increases β-lactamase activity up to 207-fold in a dose-dependent manner. This enables the rapid detection and sensitive quantification of compounds that enhance...
Antibody directed enzyme prodrug therapy (ADEPT) utilizing β-lactamase is a promising treatment strategy to enhance the therapeutic effect and safety of cytotoxic agents. In this method, a conjugate (antibody-β-lactamase fusion protein) is employed to precisely activate nontoxic cephalosporin prodrugs at the tumor site. A major obstacle to the clinical translation of this method, however, is th...
This work describes the development of a new platform for allosteric protein engineering that takes advantage of the ability of calmodulin to change conformation upon binding to peptide and protein ligands. The switch we have developed consists of a fusion protein in which calmodulin is genetically inserted into the sequence of TEM1 β-lactamase. In this approach, calmodulin acts as the input do...

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis) is considered innately resistant to β-lactam antibiotics. However, there is evidence that susceptibility to β-lactam antibiotics in combination with β-lactamase inhibitors is variable among clinical isolates, and these may present therapeutic options for drug-resistant cases. Here we report our investigation of susceptibility to β-lactam/β-lactamase ...
