Bacterial ${\beta}$-lactamases provide resistance to ${\beta}$-lactams by hydrolyzing the ${\beta}$-lactam bond, On the basis of their catalytic mechanisms. ${\beta}$-lactamases are divided into two major groups. Class A. C and D which belong to the first group require serine in the active site and class B which is the second group require Zn(II) for their activity. Among class B enzymes, Bacteroides fragilis ${\beta}$-lactamase (CcrA enzyme) require two Zn(II) ions per monomer for maximal enzymatic activities. (omitted)

항균 활성이 대체로 상승되었으나 Sarcina maginata의 경우는 약간 감소되었다. $\beta$-lactam 항생 물질인 penicillin G.Na와 ampicillin.Na도 인삼 saponin의 첨가로 항균 활성이 상승되었으나 Serratia 속 세균은 penicillin G.Na의 항균활성에 일정한 효과를 나타내지 않았다. 인삼 saponin 의 첨가에 의한 항생 물질들의 항균 활성의 변화는 Gram양성 세균 및 Gram음성 세균에 대해 일정하지 않은 상승 작용 혹은 길항작용과 같은 비특이성을 나타내었다. 세균의 약제 내성 현상도 인삼 saponin자 항생물질의 투여로 배제될 수 있을 것으로 사료되었다.

Resent studies have reported increased isolation of extended-spectrum $\beta-lactamase$ (ESBL) producing strains at several hospital in Korea. We studied to investigate the isolation rates of ESBL strains from clinical isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae and to characterize differences in types using analyses of genotyping and antibiotic susceptibility test. Antibiotic susceptibility test with confirmation of ESBL by double disk synergy test was performed on the 54 ESBL strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae from a hospital in Busan. Transfer of resistant gene in ESBL strains resistant to 3rd generated antibiotics was confirmed by transconjugation test using E. coli $RG176^{nal(r)}$. blaTEM, blaSHV, blaCTX-M genes were detected by PCR. ESBL producing strains had 100% of resistant rate to ampicillin, azteronam, cefazolin, cefepime and ceftriaxone ($\beta-lactam$ antibiotics). Forty strains of bla TEM$(74\%)$, 41 strains of bla SHV $(76\%)$, 23 strains of bla CTX-M $(43\%)$ were found, respectively. The strains had one or more genes. They had high resistant rates to $\beta-lactam$ antibiotics including cephalosporin. The resistant rates of strains with multiple resistant genes were higher than those of strains with single resistant gene.

In vitro $\beta$-lactamase inhibitory activity of 6-exomethylene sulbactam compounds (CH-120, 130, 140, 145, 150, 155) was compared with clavulanic acid, sulbactam and tazobactam. The inhibitory activity of CH-140 was stronger than sulbactam and clavulanic acid against Type II, III, IV, TEM enzymes and stronger than tazobactam against Type IV enzyme. The inhibitory activity of CH-145 was stronger than sulbactam and clavulanic acid against Type I, II, III, IV, TEM enzymes and stronger than tazobactam against Type III, IV enzymes. The in vitro antimicrobial activity of CH-140 and CH-145 combined with piperacillin and ceftriaxone was compared with the sulbactam and tazobactam against $\beta$-lactamase producing 31 strains. But, synergistic activity of CH-140 and CH-145 was inferior to tazobactam.

In vitro $\beta$-lactamase inhibitory activity of 6-exomethylenepenam compounds ( 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5) was compared with clavulanic acid, sulbactam and tazobactam. The inhibitory activity of compound 3 was stronger than those of sulbactam and clavulanic acid against Type I and II enzymes and stronger than tazobactam against Type III, IV, TEM enzymes. The inhibitory activity of 5 was stronger than sulbactam and clavulanic acid against Type I and II enzymes and stronger than tazobactam against Type III, and IV enzymes. The in vitro antimicrobial activity of 3, 4 and 5 combined with ampicillin and cefoperazone was compared with the sulbactam against $\beta$-lactamase producing 27 strains. But, synergistic activity of 3 and 5 was inferior to tazobactam.

Phytochemical studies of the root of Aristolochia contorta afforded an unidentified N-glycoside rarely found in natural products. It's structure was elucidated as 8-desmethoxy-aristolactam $N-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$ by spectral data and chemical analysis. 6-Hydroxy-8-desmethoxy-aristolactam $N-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$, aristolactam I and aristolactam AII were also isolated from the same source. $^{13}C-NMR$ spectra were first assigned and the result confirmed N-C-O-glycosidic linkages in the glycosides.

The studies on design and synthesis of new monocyclic ${\beta}$-lactam esters 4(R/S)-(1'-methoxycarbonylpropyl- 2'(R/S)-thio)-3(R)-phenylacetamidoazetidin-2-one (3a) and 4(R/S)-(1'-methoxycarbonyl-2'-methylpropyl-2'- thio)-3(R)-phenylacetamidoazetidin-2-one (3b) were described. Compounds 3a and 3b were specifically designed to retain all penicillin substructures except the bicyclic system, which would be conceived by cleaving the C(3)-N(4) bond of penicillin G. Compounds 3a and 3b are of particular interest in the context of the structural elucidation of monocyclic ${\beta}$-lactams originated from penicillin. Key intermediates, ${\beta}$-mercapto esters 6a and 6b, were synthesized from conjugate acids 4a and 4b using three-step synthetic sequences, respectively, and 4(S)-acetoxy-3(S)-phenylacetamidoazetidin-2-one (7) was obtained from the degradation of penicillin G. Reactions of 6a and 6b with 7, thus obtained, provided the target compounds 3a and 3b, respectively.

In vitro ${\beta}-lactamase$ inhibitory activity of 6-benzothiazole penicillins (1, 2, 3 and 4) was compared with clavulanic acid, sulbactam and tazobactam. The inhibitory activity of exomethylene compounds (3 and 4) was stronger than those of non-exomethylene compounds (1 and 2). The sulfide 3 showed stronger inhibitory activity than sulbactam, clavulanic acid andsimilar to tazobactam against ${\beta}-lactamase$ Type I enzymes. The inhibitory activity of 4 was stronger than those of sulbactam, clavulanic acid and tazobactam against Type III and IV enzymes. The in vitro antimicrobial activity of ampicillin or cefoperazone combined with 3 or 4 was stronger than those of ampicillin or cefoperazone alone against many ${\beta}-lactamase$ producing strains to show that compounds 3 and 4 have some synergistic effect. The synergistic activity of 3 and 4 was comparable to sulbactam in some ${\beta}-lactamase$ producing strains, but it was inferior to tazobactam.

The resistant strains due to the extended-spectrum $\beta$-lactamase (ESBL) were susceptible to cefatrizine combined with clavulanic acid. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the in vitro and in vivo antibacterial activities of cefatrizine/clavulanic acid (CTRZ/CV) combination at a ratio of 2 : 1 in comparison with cefaclor (CCLO), cefuroxime (CRXM), cefuroxime axetil (CRXMA) and amoxicillin/clavulanic acid (AMXCCV). CTRZ/CV showed good activity against laboratory strains of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria and exhibited excellent antibacterial activity against $\beta$-lactamase-producing strains. The bactericidal activity of CTRZ/CV was superior to that of CCLO and CRXM, and almost equal to that of AMXCCV against the $\beta$-lactamase-producing strains. The in vitro results were substantiated. by in vivo mouse experimental infection studies with $\beta$-lactamase-producing and non-producing strains. In mixed experimental infection due to $\beta$-lactamase-producing and non-producing strains, the therapeutic efficacy of CTRZ/CV was superior to that of CTRZ, CCLO, CRXMA and AMXCCV. In respiratory tract infection in mice due to Klebsiella pneumoniae EB4O, CTRZ/CV was more erective than CCLO, CRXMA and AMXCCV and also more efficacious than CCLO, CRXMA and AMXCCV in urinary tract infection in mice due to Escherichia coli EB13. These results indicate that CTRZ/CV is a useful drug for the treatment of infection caused by $\beta$-1actamase-producing strains including ESBL-producing strains.

The metallo-$\beta$-lactamases ($M{\beta}Ls$) are clinically significant enzymes which readily hydrolyze most $\beta$-lactam antibiotics. Discovering potential inhibitors for the $M{\beta}Ls$ is an expensive, time consuming endeavor. Virtual screening can sieve out inhibitor candidates with incompatible features prior to synthesis, decreasing these costs. Using Autodock 4.0, the binding locations and energies of four previously-studied potential inhibitors and four additional compounds obtained from the National Cancer Institute (NCI) database were computationally calculated. Based on the docking models of these eight compounds, we then designed several hypothetical inhibitor structures, compounds A through F, and performed their respective docking experiments. The docking results for compound F showed that it binds to the zinc containing active sites with a lowest predicted binding energy of -6.70 kcal/mol, suggesting F is the most likely potential $M{\beta}L$ inhibitor.
