The Tandem Repeats Enabling Reversible Switching between the Two Phases of β-Lactamase Substrate Spectrum

English version České info

β-lactamases can adapt to new antibiotics by mutations in their genes. The original and the extended substrate spectrums of β-lactamases define two phases of catalytic activity, and the conversion by point mutations is unidirectional from the initial to the new spectrum. We describe duplication mutations that enable reversible switching between the substrate spectrums, increasing the adaptability of the bacterium. We provide evidence supporting that two distinct groups of short sequences mediated the formation of DNA duplications in β-lactamases: direct repeats and novel elements that we named, SCSs (same-strand complementary sequences). Our study suggests that DNA duplication processes mediated by both direct repeats and SCSs are not just limited to the β-lactamase genes but comprise a fundamental mechanism in bacterial genome evolution.
