Abstract
The class A PSE-4 beta-lactamase was used for studying the importance of amino acids in the omega (Omega) loop and its interactions for hydrolysis of beta-lactam antibiotics. By cassette mutagenesis, we replaced the amino acids 163-179 Omega loop in PSE-4 with TEM-1, SHV-1 and Streptomyces albus G beta-lactamase Omega loops. Phenotypic analysis of Escherichia coli recombinants expressing the Omega loop PSE-4 mutant enzymes gave MICs and kinetic data similar to those of wild-type PSE-4.
