Structural basis of metallo-β-lactamase inhibition by captopril stereoisomers

β-Lactams are the most successful antibacterials, but their effectiveness is threatened by resistance, most importantly by production of serine- and metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs). MBLs are of increasing concern because they catalyse the hydrolysis of almost all β-lactam antibiotics, including recent g...
