Structural studies of the mechanism for biosensing antibiotics in a fluorescein-labeled β-lactamase

BACKGROUND: β-lactamase conjugated with environment-sensitive fluorescein molecule to residue 166 on the Ω-loop near its catalytic site is a highly effective biosensor for β-lactam antibiotics. Yet the molecular mechanism of such fluorescence-based biosensing is not well understood. RESULTS: Here we...
