Genetic analysis of the beta-lactamases of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium smegmatis and susceptibility to beta-lactam antibiotics.
The study identifies and characterizes beta-lactamases blaC, blaS, and a putative cephalosporinase blaE in Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium smegmatis, demonstrating their roles in beta-lactam resistance through increased susceptibility in mutants lacking these genes.
