Abstract
ABSTRACTVIM-39, a VIM-1-like metallo-β-lactamase variant (VIM-1 Thr33Ala His224Leu) was identified in a clinical isolate ofKlebsiella pneumoniaebelonging to sequence type 147. VIM-39 hydrolyzed ampicillin, cephalothin, and imipenem more efficiently than did VIM-1 and VIM-26 (a VIM-1 variant with the His224Leu substitution) because of higher turnover rates.
