(Dorland, 28th ed) EC 3.5.2.-. beta-Lactamase I,AER-I beta-Lactamase,Benzylpenicillinase,Carbenicillinase,Exopenicillinase,beta Lactamase III,beta Lactamase RP4,gamma-Penicillinase,AER I beta Lactamase,Lactamase RP4, beta,beta Lactamase I,beta-Lactamase, AER-I,gamma Penicillinase
D010406 Penicillins A group of antibiotics that contain 6-aminopenicillanic acid with a side chain attached to the 6-amino group. The penicillin nucleus is the chief structural requirement for biological activity. The side-chain structure determines many of the antibacterial and pharmacological characteristics.

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
