Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global threat, with Burkholderia species contributing significantly to difficult-to-treat infections. Ambler Class A Pen {beta}-lactamases are produced by all Burkholderia spp., and their mutation or overproduction leads to the resistance of {beta}-lactam antibiotics. This study investigates the dynamic differences among four Pen {beta}-lactamases (PenA, PenI, PenL and PenP) using machine learning driven enhanced sampling molecular dynamics simulations, Markov State Models (MSMs), convolutional variational autoencoder-based deep learning (CVAE) and the BindSiteS-CNN model. Although sharing the same catalytic mechanisms, these enzymes exhibit distinct dynamic features due low sequence identity, resulting in different substrate profiles and catalytic turnover. The BindSiteS-CNN model further reveals local active site dynamics, offering insights into the Pen {beta}-lactamase evolutionary adaptation. Our findings reported here identify critical mutations and proposes new hotspots affecting Pen {beta}-lactamase flexibility and function, which can be used to fight emerging resistance in these enzymes.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
