β-Lactamase(Amp) is produced by some bacteria, providing resistance against penicilins and so on. The β-Lactamase hydrolyzes β-lactam's conservative ring region, deactivating the antibiotic, and it can be use for the treatment of bacterial infection.
In our project, β-Lactamase is used to catalyze the hydrolysis of penicillin to penicillinoic acid. This redox reaction leads to current changes, which can be detected using A3 electrode system. We dissected β-Lactamase between Gly196 and Leu198, for they are on the opposite side of the active site. Moreover, we can enhance the activity and metabolically stability of β-Lactamase by introducing a mutation M182T, which disrupts an inactive molten-globule intermediate of β-Lactamase.
