Abstract:
Theoretically, sandwich immunoassay is more sensitive and has a wider working range than that of competitive format. However, it has been thought that small molecules cannot be detected by the sandwich format due to their limited size. In the present study, we proposed a novel strategy for achieving sandwich immunoassay of β-lactams with low molecular weights. Firstly, five β-lactam antibiotics were selected to bind with penicillin binding protein (PBP)2x* to form complexes. Then, monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies against PBP2x*-β-lactams complexes were produced by animal immunization. Subs

The monoclinic crystals (space group P21/a, Z = 8) of 2-phenyl-4-hydroxyphthalazin-1-one, C14H10N2O2, have two independent molecules (A and B) in the asymmetric unit. Both occur as the lactim–lactam (hydroxy–one) structure, which is also found in the parent molecule maleic hydrazide (both triclinic and monoclinic polymorphs), dichloromaleic hydrazide and luminol (3-aminophthalhydrazide). The molecular arrangement is based on strings of alternating A and B molecules linked by hydroxyl...carbonyl hydrogen bonds, with only van der Waals interactions between adjacent strings.

Abstract:
Reaction rate constants obtained in moderately concentrated sulfuric acid for the hydrolysis of simple lactams of ring sizes five, six, seven, and eight as a function of acidity and temperature have been analyzed using the excess acidity kinetic method. The basicity constants for these substrates have been recalculated; the 13C NMR spectra used to obtain these values are very sensitive to medium effects. It was found that the basicities of the lactams at 0.003-0.1 M lactam concentration were over half a pK unit more basic than they were at 0.5 M lactam, presumably because of the medium effect.

Abstract:
Bacterial resistance is responsible for a wide variety of health problems, both in children and adults. The persistence of symptoms and infections are mainly treated with β-lactam antibiotics. The increasing resistance to those antibiotics by bacterial pathogens generated the emergence of extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs), an actual public health problem. This is due to rapid mutations of bacteria when exposed to antibiotics. In this case, β-lactamases are enzymes used by bacteria to hydrolyze the beta-lactam rings present in the antibiotics.

Abstract:
Class A serine β-lactamases (SBLs) have a conserved non-active site structural domain called the omega loop (Ω-loop), in which a glutamic acid residue is believed to be directly involved in the hydrolysis of β-lactam antibiotics by providing a water molecule during catalysis. We aimed to design and characterise potential pentapeptides to mask the function of the Ω-loop of β-lactamases and reduce their efficacy, along with potentiating the β-lactam antibiotics and eventually decreasing β-lactam resistance. Considering the Ω-loop sequence as a template, a group of pentapeptide models were design

Abstract Penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) are integral to bacterial cell division as they mediate the final steps of cell wall maturation. Selective fluorescent probes are useful for understanding the role of individual PBPs, including their localization and activity during growth and division of bacteria. For the development of new selective probes for PBP imaging, several β-lactam antibiotics were screened, as they are known to covalently bind PBP in vivo. The PBP inhibition profiles of 16 commercially available β-lactam antibiotics were evaluated in an unencapsulated derivative of the D39

PBP2a has a lower affinity for methicillin, allowing bacteria to maintain peptidoglycan biosynthesis, a core component of the bacterial cell wall. Consequently, even in the presence of methicillin or other antibiotics, bacteria can develop resistance. Due to genes responsible for resistan

Here, we identified the MCR-1 M6 variant carrying two-point mutations that conferred co-resistance to β-lactam antibiotics. Compared to wild-type (WT) MCR-1, this variant caused severe disturbance in lipid A, resulting in up-regulation of L, D-transpeptidases (LDTs) pathway, which explains co-resistance to β-lactams.
