Background

Ambler Classification

  • Classification based on amino acid sequences rather than function
Class Binding Site Examples Inhibitors
A serine TEM, SHV, KPC, CTX-M, GES clavulanic acid, tazobactam, avibactam, vaborbactam, relebactam
B metallo VIM, NDM, IMP
C serine AmpC, P99 avibactam, vaborbactam, relebactam
D serine OXA (oxacillinase) enzymes avibactam (OXA-48), ±clavulanic aciid

Serine β-lactamases

  • Amber classes A, B, and C are the serine β-lactamases
  • Contain a serine residue at the active site
  • Class A: inhibited by clavulanic acid or tazobactam
    • Constitutively expressed plasmid
    • Most common ESBL in Gram-negative bacteria
    • Resistance to 2nd and 3rd generation cephalosporins
    • Common in E. coli, Klebsiella, and Proteus spp.
    • Examples include:
      • Penicillinases: TEM-1 (common in GNBs), SHV-1
      • ESBLs: CTX-M, TEM-3
      • Carbapenemases: K. pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC)
  • Class C: not inhibited by clavulanic acid or EDTA, resistant to cefoxitin, inhibited by cloxicillin in vitro
  • Class D: not inhibited by EDTA, variably inhibited by clavulanic acid; hard to identify
    • Common in Pseudomonas
    • Difficult to detect with routine screening
    • Examples include:
      • ESBLs: OXA-11
      • Carbapenemases: OXA-23, OXA-48

Metallo-β-lactamases

  • Ambler Class B are the metallo-β-lactamases
  • Contain a zinc ion at the active site
  • Inhibited by EDTA, not inhibited by clavulanic acid
  • Examples include:
    • Carbapenemases:
      • New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamase (NDM-1)
      • Imipenemases (IMP)
      • Verona integron-encoded metallo-β-lactamases (VIM)
      • L1 β-lactamase, present in the Stenotrophomonas maltophilia chromosome

Bush-Jacoby Classifications

2br penicillins resistance to clavulanic acid, sulbactam, and tazobactam TEM-30, SHV-10
2ber extended-spectrum cephalosporins, monobactams increased hydrolysis of oxyimino-β-lactams plus resistance to clavulanic acid, sulbactam, and tazobactam TEM-50
2c carbenicillin yes increased hydrolysis of carbenicillin PSE-1, CARB-3
2ce carbenicillin, cefepime yes increased hydrolysis of carbenicillin, cefepime, and cefpirome RTG-4
2d D cloxacillin variable increased hydrolysis of cloxacillin or oxacillin OXA-1, OXA-10
2de extended-spectrum cephalosporins variable hydrolyzes cloxacillin or oxacillin and oxyimino-β-lactams OXA-11, OXA-15
2df carbapenems variable hydrolyzes cloxacillin or oxacillin and carbapenems OXA-23, OXA-48
2e A extended-spectrum cephalosporins yes hydrolyzes cephalosporins, and inhibited by clavulanic acid but not aztreonem CepA
2f carbapenems variable increased hydrolysis of carbapenems, oxyimino-β-lactams, cephamycins KPC-2, IMI-1, SME-1
Group 3: Carbapenemases
3a B carbapenems yes broad-spectrum hydrolysis including carbapenems but not monobactams IMP-1, VIM-1, CcrA, IND-1, L1, CAU-1, GOB-1, FEZ-1
3b carbapenems yes preferential hydrolysis of carbapenems CphA, Sfh-1

Epidemiology

  • The most common β-lactamase is TEM-1
  • The most common carbapenemases in the US are KPCs, followed by NDM and OXA-48-like carbapenemases
