Beta Lactamase

tRNAse Z Metallo-Beta Lactamase (homosapien)

Disease

If there are mutations in the tRNase Z metallo-beta lactamases, these enzymes have been implicated in several diseases including prostate cancer [1]. While there is still much to learn about how these lactamases work inter-connectedly with other enzymes, research suggests that metallo-beta lactamases function as cleavage and polyadenylation factors [2].


Evolutionary Considerations

Beta Lactamase protein structure is highly conserved across both prokaryotes and eukaryotes [3]. Their presence indicates that these proteins are highly adaptable, with a wide range of substrates [4]. The highly conserved nature of this structure suggests that the genetic material for beta lactamase is ancient in origin [5]. They have found early beta lactamases in deep sea sediment, before the first antibiotic was ever encountered.


This is a sample scene created with SAT to color by Group, and another to make a transparent representation of the protein. You can make your own scenes on SAT starting from scratch or loading and editing one of these sample scenes.
