βlactamasein5

β-Lactamase-IN-5, a β-lactamase inhibitor isolated from compound 720, holds significant potential for studying bacterial infections.

Metallo-β-lactamase-IN-5 (compound 5c) is a powerful inhibitor of metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs). Its inhibitory activity against MBLs NDM-1 and VIM-1 has been demonstrated. With an IC50 value of 45 μg mL, Metallo-β-lactamase-IN-5 effectively inhibits HUVECs. Additionally, when combined with Imipenem, Metallo-β-lactamase-IN-5 exhibits synergistic antimicrobial activity [1].
