Structural and biochemical analyses of an aminoglycoside 2′-N-acetyltransferase from Mycolicibacterium smegmatis

Abstract The expression of aminoglycoside-modifying enzymes represents a survival strategy of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Aminoglycoside 2′-N-acetyltransferase [AAC(2′)] neutralizes aminoglycoside drugs by acetylation of their 2′ amino groups in an acetyl coenzyme A (CoA)-dependent manner. To und...
