Prediction of β-lactamase and its class by Chou's pseudo-amino acid composition and support vector machine.

Journal of theoretical biology
β-Lactam class of antibiotics is used as major therapeutic agent against a number of pathogenic microbes. The widespread and indiscriminate use of antibiotics to treat bacterial infection has prompted evolution of several evading mechanisms from the ...

β-lactam resistance: epidemiological trends, molecular drivers, and innovative control strategies in the post-pandemic era.

Clinical microbiology reviews
SUMMARY () is a major human pathogen that can cause severe diseases such as meningitis and bacteremia. β-lactam antibiotics are the most essential antimicrobial agents for treating infections, but the resistance has become a significant challenge in...

Systematic analysis of supervised machine learning as an effective approach to predicate β-lactam resistance phenotype in Streptococcus pneumoniae.

Briefings in bioinformatics
Streptococcus pneumoniae is the most common human respiratory pathogen, and β-lactam antibiotics have been employed to treat infections caused by S. pneumoniae for decades. β-lactam resistance is steadily increasing in pneumococci and is mainly assoc...
