This disruption usually is caused
by broad - spectrum antibiotics (Figure 2), 1,5,8 — 11 with clindamycin (Cleocin) and broad - spectrum

of developing antibiotic - associated diarrhea more than doubles with longer than three days
of antibiotic therapy (risk ratio: 2.28).12

Since the discovery

by Nobel Laureate Alexander Fleming, the battle between bacteria and antibiotics is fierce and ongoing.
β - Lactamases encoded
by reconstructed sequences corresponding to the GNCA node have been previously shown11 to be able to degrade a variety
of antibiotics, including
penicillin and third - generation antibiotics with efficiencies similar to that
of a modern average enzyme (
by contrast, the modern TEM - 1 β - lactamase is a specialist enzyme that displays high catalytic efficiency with
penicillin and a substantially lower efficiency with third - generation antibiotics).
We therefore determined the Michaelis — Menten parameters for the degradation
of a
penicillin antibiotic (benzylpenicillin) and one third - generation antibiotic (cefotaxime) catalysed
by GNCA4 - W229D / F290W (Fig. 7).
