2. Methicillin - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methicillin

   Methicillin and other β-lactam antibiotics are structural analogs of D-alanyl-alanine, and the transpeptidase enzymes that bind to them are sometimes called penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs). [3] Methicillin is actually a penicillinase-resistant β-lactam antibiotic. Penicillinase is a bacterial enzyme produced by bacteria resistant to other ...

3. β-Lactam antibiotic - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Β-Lactam_antibiotic

   For example, Augmentin (FGP) is made of amoxicillin (a β-lactam antibiotic) and clavulanic acid (a β-lactamase inhibitor). The clavulanic acid is designed to overwhelm all β-lactamase enzymes, and effectively serve as an antagonist so that the amoxicillin is not affected by the β-lactamase enzymes. Another β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitor ...

   Modification of the penicillin molecule so that it was resistant to being broken down by β-lactamase was able to temporarily overcome this problem. [citation needed] These compounds became known as antistaphylococcal penicillins. [when?] The first of these compounds was methicillin, which is no longer in general use. The range of these ...
