Enzymes from Cold‐Adapted Microorganisms — The Class C β‐lactamase from the Antarctic Psychrophile Psychrobacter Immobilis A5
A heat‐labile β‐lactamase has been purified from culture supernatants of Psychrobacter immobilis A5 grown at 4°C and the corresponding chromosomal ampC gene has been cloned and sequenced. All structural and kinetic properties clearly relate this enzyme to class C β‐lactamases. The kinetic parameters...
