Metallo-β-lactamase-mediated antimicrobial resistance and progress in inhibitor discovery
Resistance to β-lactam antibiotics is rapidly growing, substantially due to the spread of serine-β-lactamases (SBLs) and metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs), which efficiently catalyse β-lactam hydrolysis. Combinations of a β-lactam antibiotic with an SBL inhibitor have been clinically successful; however,...
