  • Title: Moraxella (Branhamella) catarrhalis BRO beta-lactamase: a lipoprotein of gram-positive origin?
    Author: Bootsma HJ, Aerts PC, Posthuma G, Harmsen T, Verhoef J, van Dijk H, Mooi FR.
    Journal: J Bacteriol; 1999 Aug; 181(16):5090-3. PubMed ID: 10438784.
    Abstract:
    In the past 20 years, BRO beta-lactamase-producing Moraxella catarrhalis strains have emerged. We show that BRO is expressed as a 33-kDa lipoprotein associated with the inner leaflet of the outer membrane. To our knowledge, this is the first description of a lipidated beta-lactamase in a gram-negative species.
