Journal ArticleDOI

A general reaction mechanism for carbapenem hydrolysis by mononuclear and binuclear metallo-β-lactamases

TL;DR: It is shown that different MβLs share the same reaction mechanism, suggesting new strategies for drug design and open avenues for rationally designed inhibitors of all M βLs, notwithstanding the profound differences between these enzymes’ active site structure, β-lactam specificity and metal content.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis, characterization and antioxidant activity of water soluble MnIII complexes of sulphonato-substituted Schiff base ligands.

TL;DR: Two new Mn(III) complexes prepared and characterized show dual superoxide dismutase/catalase activity that renders these compounds particularly attractive as catalytic antioxidants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exploring the molecular basis of human manganese superoxide dismutase inactivation mediated by tyrosine 34 nitration.

TL;DR: The results for the WT and selected mutant proteins confirm that the phenolic moiety of Y34 plays a key role in assisting superoxide migration, and suggests that 3-nitrotyrosine increases drastically the energetic barrier for ligand entry due to the absence of the proton.
