Scope note: AMIDAS cíclicas de cuatro miembros, mejor conocidas por las PENICILINAS, basadas en una biciclotiazolidina, asi como las CEFALOSPORINAS basadas en una biciclotiazina, y que incluyen los MONOBACTÁMICOS monocíclicos. Las BETALACTAMASAS hidrolizan el anillo betalactamo, lo que es responsable de la RESISTENCIA A LOS BETALACTÁMICOS de las bacterias.

Scope note: Four-membered cyclic AMIDES, best known for the PENICILLINS based on a bicyclo-thiazolidine, as well as the CEPHALOSPORINS based on a bicyclo-thiazine, and including monocyclic MONOBACTAMS. The BETA-LACTAMASES hydrolyze the beta lactam ring, accounting for BETA-LACTAM RESISTANCE of infective bacteria.
