L1-like metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) exhibit diversity and are highly conserved. Although the presence of the <i>bla</i><sub>L1-like</sub> gene is known, the biochemical characteristics are unclear. This study aimed to characterize an L1-like MBL from <i>Stenotrophomonas lactitubi</i>. It showed 70.9-99.7% similarity to 50 L1-like amino acid sequences. The characteristic kinetic parameter was its high hydrolyzing efficiency for ampicillin and nitrocefin. Furthermore, L1-like from <i>S. lactitubi< ...[more]
