摘要: Penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) are mem- brane involved in the final stages of peptidogly- can synthesis and represent targets b-lactam an- tibiotics. Enterococci naturally resistant to these tibiotics because they produce a PBP, named PBP5fm Enterococcus faecium, with low-level affinity for b-lac- tams. We report here crystal structure acyl-en- zyme complex benzylpenicillin at res- olution 2.4 A. A characteristic active site, which distinguishes from other PBPs known struc- ture, is topology loop 451-465 defining left
