Beta Lactamase is a highly conserved enzyme in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. In prokaryotes, it gives bacteria such as ''E.coli'' antibiotic resistance. In eukaryotes, it acts as exo and endonucleases to regulate transcription activity. | Beta Lactamase is a highly conserved enzyme in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes.

Inside of the gram positive or gram negative bacteria, there is a protein called the penicillin binding protein. The penicillin binding proteins (PBPs) are what help the peptidoglycan walls to form by linking NAG and NAM chains together. The beta-lactam ring fits particularly well into the PBP, which is how antibiotics like penicillin prevent bacteria from synthesizing its cell wall. | Inside of the gram positive or gram negative bacteria, there is a protein called the penicillin binding protein.

Beta Lactamase protein structure is highly conserved across both prokaryotes and eukaryotes <ref>doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/819797</ref>. Their presence indicates that these proteins are highly adaptable, with a wide range of substrates <ref>https://doi.org/10.1101/575373</ref>. The highly conserved nature of this structure suggests that the genetic material for beta lactamase is ancient in origin <ref>https://doi.org/10.1101/575373</ref>. They have found early beta lactamases in deep sea sediment, before the first antibiotic was ever encountered. | Beta Lactamase protein structure is highly conserved across both prokaryotes and eukaryotes <ref>doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/819797</ref>.
