Description

Carbapenems are famously stable to AmpC β-lactamases and extended-spectrum-β-lactamases. Carbapenemases are a diverse group of β-lactamases that are active not only against the oxyimino-cephalosporins and cephamycins but also against the carbapenems. Carbapenemases were formerly believed to derive only from classes A, B, and D, but a class C carbapenemase has been described.
