Beta Lactamase Ii

An amino acid residue functioning as a general base has been proposed to assist in the hydrolysis of beta-lactam antibiotics by the zinc-containing Bacillus cereus beta-lactamase II [Bicknell & Waley (1985) Biochemistry 24, 6876-6887]. Oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis of cloned Bacillus cereus 5/B/6 beta-lactamase II was used in an ‘in vivo’ study to investigate the role of carboxy-group-containing amino acids near the active site of the enzyme. Substitution of asparagine for the wild-type aspartic acid residue at position 81 resulted in fully functional enzyme. An aspartic acid residue at position 90 is essential for beta-lactamase II to confer any detectable ampicillin and cephalosporin C resistance to Escherichia coli. Conversion of Asp90 into Asn90 or Glu90 lead to the synthesis of inactive enzyme, suggesting that the spatial position of the beta-carboxy group of Asp90 is critical for enzyme function.

Hydrolysis Of

An 8-thionocephalosporin was shown to be a substrate of the beta-lactamase II of Bacillus cereus, a zinc metalloenzyme. Although it is a poorer substrate, as judged by the Kcat./Km parameter, than the corresponding 8-oxocephalosporin, the discrimination against sulphur decreased when the bivalent metal ion in the enzyme active site was varied in the order Mn2+ (the manganese enzyme catalysed the hydrolysis of the oxo compound but not that of the thiono compound), Zn2+, Co2+ and Cd2+. This result is taken as evidence for kinetically significant direct contact between the active-site metal ion of beta-lactamase II and the beta-lactam carbonyl heteroatom. No evidence was obtained, however, for accumulation of an intermediate with such co-ordination present.

1. Four histidine-containing peptides have been isolated from a tryptic digest of the Zn2+-requiring beta-lactamase II from Bacillus cereus. One of these peptides probably contains two histidine residues. 2. The presence of one equivalent of Zn2+ substantially decreases the rate of exchange of the C-2 proton in at least two and probably three of the histidine residues of these peptides for solvent 3H. 3. It is concluded that peptides containing at least two of the three histidine residues acting as Zn2+ ligands at the tighter Zn2+-binding site of beta-lactamase II have been identified.

Beta Lactamase Ii

Beta-Lactamase II from Bacillus cereus was readily inactivated by incubation at pH 4.75 with a water-soluble carbodiimide plus a suitable nucleophile. In the early stages of the reaction, 1 equivalent of nucleophile was incorporated/equivalent of enzyme, whereas during the later stages a second equivalent of nucleophile was also incorporated. This latter process correlated with the blocking of the enzyme's single thiol group. Enzyme inactivated in the presence of the coloured nucleophile N-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)ethylenediamine was fragmented by pepsin digestion, and coloured peptides were isolated by gel filtration and h.p.l.c. Two major peptides, representing 52% of the incorporated label, were isolated and sequenced. Both peptides contained the incorporated label on glutamic acid-37, and it is concluded that this latter residue represents a catalytically essential carboxylic residue in beta-lactamase II.

Beta Lactamase Ii

The influence of C-6 alpha- or C-7 alpha-methoxylation of the beta-lactam ring in the catalytic action of class A and B beta-lactamases has been investigated. For this purpose the kinetic behaviour of beta-lactamases I (class A) and II (class B) from Bacillus cereus was analysed by using several cephamycins, moxalactam, temocillin and related antibiotics. These compounds behaved as poor substrates for beta-lactamase II, with high Km values and very low catalytic efficiencies. In the case of beta-lactamase I, the substitution of a methoxy group for a H atom at C-7 alpha or C-6 alpha decreased the affinity of the substrates for the enzyme. Furthermore, the acylation of cephamycins was completely blocked, whereas that of penicillins was slowed down by a factor of 10(4)-10(5), acylation being the rate-determining step of the process.

High Degree

A mutant of Bacillus cereus 5/B, strain 5/B/6, produces a beta-lactamase II-like enzyme but no beta-lactamase I. Beta-lactamases II and II 5/B/6 appear to show a high degree of homology, but there are significant differences in their enzymic properties.
