This paper is dealing with the enzymatic problem raised by two strains of Ps. aeruginosa resistant to classical beta lactam antibiotics including carbenicillin. These two strains hydrolyse all these antibiotics. In both cases, we have shown the simultaneous biosynthesis of two enzymes: an inducible and chromosome cephalosporinase frequently found in this germ, and a constitutive beta lactamase, with a penicillinase activity which has been identified with the extrachromosomic beta lactamase R-TEM. These two enzymes have been separated by affinity chromatography, characterized by their kinetic constants given by computerized microacidimetry, and their isoelectric points which are respectively 9.2 for the cephalosporinase and 5.40 for the penicillinase R-TEM. Isoelectric focussing also shows the separation of these two enzymes.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007525 Isoelectric Focusing Electrophoresis in which a pH gradient is established in a gel medium and proteins migrate until they reach the site (or focus) at which the pH is equal to their isoelectric point. Electrofocusing,Focusing, Isoelectric
D007700 Kinetics The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D010400 Penicillin G A penicillin derivative commonly used in the form of its sodium or potassium salts in the treatment of a variety of infections. It is effective against most gram-positive bacteria and against gram-negative cocci. It has also been used as an experimental convulsant because of its actions on GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID mediated synaptic transmission.
