https://www.selleckchem.com/ Antibiotic-resistant bacteria are considered one of the major global threats to human and animal health. The most harmful among the resistant bacteria are β-lactamase producing Gram-negative species (β-lactamases). β-lactamases constitute a paradigm shift in the evolution of antibiotic resistance. Therefore, it is imperative to present a comprehensive review of the mechanisms responsible for developing antimicrobial resistance. Resistance due to β-lactamases develops through a variety of mechanisms, and the number of resistant genes are involved that can be transferred between bacteria, mostly via plasmids. Over time, these new molecular-based resistance mechanisms have been progressively disclosed. The present review article provides information on the recent findings regarding the molecular mechanisms of resistance to β-lactams in Gram-negative bacteria, including CTX-M-type ESBLs with methylase activity, plasmids harbouring phages with β-lactam resistance genes, the co-presence of β-lactam resistant genes of unique combinations and the presence of β-lactam and non-β-lactam antibiotic-resistant genes in the same bacteria. Keeping in view, the molecular level resistance development, multifactorial and coordinated measures may be taken to counter the challenge of rapidly increasing β-lactam resistance.The intrinsically disordered proteins/regions (IDPs/IDPRs) are known to be responsible for multiple cellular processes and are associated with many chronic diseases. In viruses, the existence of a disordered proteome is also proven and is related to its conformational dynamics inside the host. The SARS-CoV-2 has a large proteome, in which, structure and functions of all proteins are not known yet, along with non-structural protein 11 (nsp11). In this study, we have performed extensive experimentation on nsp11. Our results based on the CD spectroscopy gives characteristic disordered spectrum for IDPs. Further, we investigated the conformatio
