Outline of Final Research Achievements

Our object is to develop effective inhibitors of carbapenemases, β-lactamases with carbapenem hydrolyzing activity. In this study, we screened for carbapenemase inhibitors among 1018 approved drug compounds. To access this, high-throughput screening technique using purified carbapenemase, nitrocefin, and inhibitor candidate compounds, were developed. This HTS technique made us to evaluate the large number of compounds with ease and reliability in a short time. As a result, we could find 13 weak inhibitors, 11 intermediate inhibitors, and 9 strong inhibitors of one carbapenemase.
