Functional regulation of reconstituted Na,K-ATPase by protein kinase A phosphorylation.

abstract：:The amino acid sequence of the zinc-requiring beta-lactamase II from Bacillus cereus strain 569 has been determined. It consists of a single polypeptide chain of 227 residues. It is the only example so far fully characterized of a class B beta-lactamase, and is structurally and mechanistically distinct from both the w...
