Search for non-lactam inhibitors of mtb β-lactamase led to its open shape in apo state: new concept for antibiotic design

Abstract Mtb β-lactamase (BlaC) is extremely efficient in hydrolyzing ß-lactam antibiotics which renders/leads to protection and/or resistance to this bug. There is a compelling need to develop new non-lactam inhibitors which can bind and inhibit BlaC, but cannot be hydrolyzed, thus neutralizing thi...
