Properties of a novel carbenicillin-hydrolyzing beta-lactamase (CARB-4) specified by an IncP-2 plasmid from Pseudomonas aeruginosa. 1986

A M Philippon, and G C Paul, and A P Thabaut, and G A Jacoby

CARB-4, a novel carbenicillin-hydrolyzing beta-lactamase with an isoelectric point of 4.3, was discovered in a strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa from France. It was determined by a multiresistant transmissible plasmid belonging to the P-2 incompatibility group.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D010957 Plasmids Extrachromosomal, usually CIRCULAR DNA molecules that are self-replicating and transferable from one organism to another. They are found in a variety of bacterial, archaeal, fungal, algal, and plant species. They are used in GENETIC ENGINEERING as CLONING VECTORS. Episomes,Episome,Plasmid
D011550 Pseudomonas aeruginosa A species of gram-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped bacteria commonly isolated from clinical specimens (wound, burn, and urinary tract infections). It is also found widely distributed in soil and water. P. aeruginosa is a major agent of nosocomial infection. Bacillus aeruginosus,Bacillus pyocyaneus,Bacterium aeruginosum,Bacterium pyocyaneum,Micrococcus pyocyaneus,Pseudomonas polycolor,Pseudomonas pyocyanea
D002228 Carbenicillin Broad-spectrum semisynthetic penicillin derivative used parenterally. It is susceptible to gastric juice and penicillinase and may damage platelet function. Carboxybenzyl Penicillin,Anabactyl,Carbapen,Carbecin,Carbenicillin Disodium,Geopen,Microcillin,Pyopen,Disodium, Carbenicillin,Penicillin, Carboxybenzyl
D001618 beta-Lactamases Enzymes found in many bacteria which catalyze the hydrolysis of the amide bond in the beta-lactam ring. Well known antibiotics destroyed by these enzymes are penicillins and cephalosporins. beta-Lactamase,beta Lactamase,beta Lactamases
