Molecular Basis of AmpC β-Lactamase Induction by Avibactam in <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i>: PBP Occupancy, Live Cell Binding Dynamics and Impact on Resistant Clinical Isolates Harboring PDC-X Variants

Avibactam belongs to the new class of diazabicyclooctane β-lactamase inhibitors. Its inhibitory spectrum includes class A, C and D enzymes, including <i>P. aeruginosa</i> AmpC. Nonetheless, recent reports have revealed strain-dependent avibactam AmpC induction. In the present work, we wa...
