Two new natural CphA metallo-β-lactamases, the CphA4 and CphA5 enzymes, were identified in water samples from municipal sewage in central Italy. Compared to CphA, the CphA4 and CphA5 enzymes showed numerous point mutations. These enzymes have a narrow spectrum of substrates focused on carbapenems only. CphA5 showed kcat values about 40-, 12-, and 97-fold higher than those observed for CphA4 versus imipenem, ertapenem, and biapenem, respectively.
在意大利中部城市污水的水样中鉴定出两种新的天然CphA金属β-内酰胺酶,即CphA4和CphA5酶。与CphA相比,CphA4和CphA5酶表现出许多点突变。这些酶的底物谱狭窄,仅集中于碳青霉烯类。相对于亚胺培南、厄他培南和美罗培南,CphA5的催化常数(kcat)值分别比CphA4高约40倍、12倍和97倍。
