Inactivation of beta-lactamase I from B. cereus 569/H with phenylglyoxal, an arginine-selective reagent

beta -Lactamase (EC 3.5.2.6: penicillin amido- beta -lactam hydrolase) I from B. cereus 569/H is inactivated by treatment with phenylglyoxal. Inactivation depends on the pH and the presence of bicarbonate in a manner which suggests that it is due to the modification of arginyl residues. Total inacti...

Zusammenfassung:beta -Lactamase (EC 3.5.2.6: penicillin amido- beta -lactam hydrolase) I from B. cereus 569/H is inactivated by treatment with phenylglyoxal. Inactivation depends on the pH and the presence of bicarbonate in a manner which suggests that it is due to the modification of arginyl residues. Total inactivation correlates with the loss of 8 arginines per beta -lactamase, and a competitive inhibitor provides full protection from inactivation and protects ca. 2 arginines from modification.
