Class C β-lactamases share a very similar mechanism as the Class A β-lactams, acylation followed by hydrolytic deacylation.4 Class C differs from A in that the hydrolytic water, activated by tyrosine 150, approaches the enzyme from the opposite side. This activated water is what allows β-lactamases to deacylation and maintain their catalytic function, while PBPs cannot.<ref name="Bush 2013" />Class D differs from A and C in that it has an N-carboxylated active site lysine which hydrogen bonds with the active site serine.<ref>Mobashery, Shahriar.
