Beta-lactamases (such a penicillinase) are enzymes produced by some bacteria and are responsible for their resistance to beta-lactam antibiotics like penicillins, cephamycins, and carbapenems (ertapenem).
(Cephalosporins are relatively resistant to beta-lactamase.) These antibiotics have a common element in their molecular structure: a four-atom ring known as a beta-lactam.
The lactamase enzyme breaks that ring open, deactivating the molecule's antibacterial properties.
