Query author contributions in Reactome

Reactome depends on collaboration between our curation team and outside experts to assemble and peer-review its pathway modules. The integration of ORCID within Reactome enables us to meet a key challenge with authoring, curating and reviewing biological information by incentivizing and crediting the external experts that contribute their expertise and time to the Reactome curation process. More information is available at ORCID and Reactome.

If you have an ORCID ID that is not listed on this page, please forward this information to us and we will update your Reactome pathway records.

commentFUNCTION Class A beta-lactamase which confers resistance to the beta-lactam antibiotics, including penicillins, cephalosporins and carbapenems (PubMed:11257029). Acts via hydrolysis of the beta-lactam ring (PubMed:11257029, PubMed:33257320). Has penicillin-, cephalosporin- and carbapenem-hydrolyzing activities (PubMed:11257029, PubMed:33257320).CATALYTIC ACTIVITY a beta-lactam + H2O = a substituted beta-amino acidACTIVITY REGULATION Not inhibited by EDTA, inhibited by clavulanic acid and tazobactam (PubMed:11257029). Inhibited by cyclic boronates, including vaborbactam and bicyclic analogs of taniborbactam (PubMed:33479650).BIOPHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES kcat is 32 sec(-1) with benzylpenicillin as substrate (at pH 7.0 and 25 degrees Celsius) (PubMed:11257029). kcat is 340 sec(-1) with cephaloridine as substrate (at pH 7.0 and 25 degrees Celsius) (PubMed:11257029). kcat is 75 sec(-1) with cephalothin as substrate (at pH 7.0 and 25 degrees Celsius) (PubMed:11257029). kcat is 78 sec(-1) with nitrocefin as substrate (at pH 7.0 and 25 degrees Celsius) (PubMed:11257029). kcat is 610 sec(-1) with nitrocefin as substrate (at pH 7.5 and 25 degrees Celsius) (PubMed:33257320). kcat is 14 sec(-1) with cefotaxime as substrate (at pH 7.0 and 25 degrees Celsius) (PubMed:11257029). kcat is 76 sec(-1) with cefotaxime as substrate (at pH 7.5 and 25 degrees Celsius) (PubMed:33257320). kcat is 0.26 sec(-1) with cefoxitin as substrate (at pH 7.0 and 25 degrees Celsius) (PubMed:11257029). kcat is 0.1 sec(-1) with ceftazidime as substrate (at pH 7.0 and 25 degrees Celsius) (PubMed:11257029). kcat is 1.9 sec(-1) with ceftazidime as substrate (at pH 7.5 and 25 degrees Celsius) (PubMed:33257320). kcat is 110 sec(-1) with ampicillin as substrate (at pH 7.0 and 25 degrees Celsius) (PubMed:11257029). kcat is 25 sec(-1) with cloxacillin as substrate (at pH 7.0 and 25 degrees Celsius) (PubMed:11257029). kcat is 24 sec(-1) with piperacillin as substrate (at pH 7.0 and 25 degrees Celsius) (PubMed:11257029). kcat is 12.4 sec(-1) with imipenem as substrate (at pH 7.0 and 25 degrees Celsius) (PubMed:11257029). kcat is 3.0 sec(-1) with meropenem as substrate (at pH 7.0 and 25 degrees Celsius) (PubMed:11257029). kcat is 20 sec(-1) with aztreonam as substrate (at pH 7.0 and 25 degrees Celsius) (PubMed:11257029).MISCELLANEOUS Initially two different KPC beta-lactamases were identified from two different Klebsiella (KPC-1 and KPC-2); they were later shown to be identical.MISCELLANEOUS The class A beta-lactamase family has a specific amino-acid numbering system, sometimes called Ambler or ABL numbering and often misspelt as Amber. A multiple sequence alignment was used to derive a consensus sequence and then the consensus was numbered taking into account insertions and deletions. This allows use of identical numbers, e.g. for active site residues, despite differences in protein length. UniProt always uses natural numbering of residues, hence there appear to be differences in numbering between this entry and some papers.SIMILARITY Belongs to the class-A beta-lactamase family.
