Abstract
Quinolonyl-beta-lactam antimicrobial agents (QLAs) contain quinolones chemically linked to beta-lactams, although the impact of linkage is poorly understood. Genetically defined Escherichia coli strains were used to determine structure-activity characteristics of three quinolone-penem QLAs. Results suggest that the leaving group resulting from beta-lactam hydrolysis may not be free quinolone.Entities:
