The POM-1 metallo-β-lactamase is a subclass B3 resident enzyme produced by Pseudomonas otitidis, a pathogen causing otic infections. The enzyme was overproduced in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3), purified by chromatography, and subjected to structural and functional analysis. The purified POM-1 is a tetrameric enzyme of broad substrate specificity with higher catalytic activities with penicillins and carbapenems than with cephalosporins.
