6-beta-Bromopenicillanic acid, which arises from the epimerization of 6-alpha-bromopenicillanic acid in aqueous solution or from hydrogenation of 6,6-dibromopenicillanic acid, is a powerful, irreversible, active-site-directed inhibitor of several typical beta-lactamases (penicillinase; penicillin amido-beta-lactamhydrolase, EC 3.5.2.6); 6-alpha-bromopenicillanic acid, being completely inhibited at less than micromolar concentrations through what is probably a 1:1 interaction. The B. licheniformis exoenzyme is similarly susceptible, while the Staphylococcus aureus enzyme and the Escherichia coli (R factor) enzyme are less so; the B. cereus beta-lactamase II is not inhibited. Very high concentrations (greater than or equal to 0.1 M) of benzylpenicillin, a good substrate, are required to significantly reduce the rate of inhibition of B. cereus beta-lactamase I by 6-beta-bromopenicillanic acid.
6-β-溴青霉烷酸可由6-α-溴青霉烷酸在水溶液中差向异构化产生,或由6,6-二溴青霉烷酸氢化得到,它是几种典型β-内酰胺酶(青霉素酶;青霉素酰胺-β-内酰胺水解酶,EC 3.5.2.6)的一种强效、不可逆、作用于活性位点的抑制剂;6-α-溴青霉烷酸通过可能的1:1相互作用,在小于微摩尔浓度时就被完全抑制。地衣芽孢杆菌外切酶也同样敏感,而金黄色葡萄球菌酶和大肠杆菌(R因子)酶的敏感性较低;蜡样芽孢杆菌β-内酰胺酶II未被抑制。需要非常高浓度(大于或等于0.1 M)的苄青霉素(一种良好的底物)才能显著降低6-β-溴青霉烷酸对蜡样芽孢杆菌β-内酰胺酶I的抑制速率。
