Theoretical Studies on Mechanism of Inactivation of Kanamycin A by 4′-O-Nucleotidyltransferase

This work is focused on mechanistic studies of the transfer of an adenylyl group (Adenoside-5′-monophosfate) from adenosine 5′-triphosphate (ATP) to a OH-4′ hydroxyl group of an antibiotic. Using hybrid quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) techniques, we study the substrate and base-assiste...
