The antimicrobial peptide thanatin disrupts the bacterial outer membrane and inactivates the NDM-1 metallo-β-lactamase

New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase-1 (NDM-1) is the most prevalent type of metallo-β-lactamase and hydrolyzes almost all clinically used β-lactam antibiotics. Here we show that the antimicrobial peptide thanatin disrupts the outer membrane of NDM-1-producing bacteria by competitively displacing divalent...
