KPC-2 β-lactamase enables carbapenem antibiotic resistance through fast deacylation of the covalent intermediate

Serine active-site β-lactamases hydrolyze β-lactam antibiotics through the formation of a covalent acyl-enzyme intermediate followed by deacylation via an activated water molecule. Carbapenem antibiotics are poorly hydrolyzed by most β-lactamases owing to slow hydrolysis of the acyl-enzyme intermedi...
