Specific Protein-Membrane Interactions Promote Packaging of Metallo-beta-Lactamases into Outer Membrane Vesicles

Matteo Dal Peraro, Alessio Prunotto, Guillermo Bahr

Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) act as carriers of bacterial products such as plasmids and resistance determinants, including metallo-beta-lactamases. The lipidated, membrane-anchored metallo-beta-lactamase NDM-1 can be detected in Gram-negative OMVs. The s ...

Molecular Bases of the Membrane Association Mechanism Potentiating Antibiotic Resistance by New Delhi Metallo-beta-lactamase 1

Matteo Dal Peraro, Alessio Prunotto, Guillermo Bahr

Resistance to last-resort carbapenem antibiotics is an increasing threat to human health, as it critically limits therapeutic options. Metallo-beta-lactamases (MBLs) are the largest family of carbapenemases, enzymes that inactivate these drugs. Among MBLs, ...
