what is the mechanism of action for ß-lactam antibiotics ?
- inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis

what enzyme does ß-lactam antiobitics inhibits ?
transpeptidase enzyme
what is the function of transpeptidase enzyme ?
mediates cross linking of peptidoglycan strands w/. penicillin binding proteins
what are the microbial resistant beta lactam antibiotic?
