Local interactions with the Glu166 base and the conformation of an active site loop play key roles in carbapenem hydrolysis by the KPC-2 β-lactamase

The Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase-2 (KPC-2) is a common source of antibiotic resistance in Gram-negative bacterial infections. KPC-2 is a class A β-lactamase that exhibits a broad substrate profile and hydrolyzes most β-lactam antibiotics including carbapenems owing to rapid deacylation of the...
