The important amino acids within the CTX-M Beta Lactamase are Ser70, Ser130, Lys234, Arg234, and Lys73. This creates the <scene name='87/873236/Active_site/2'>catalytic triad</scene> with one proton shuttle. The residue at 234 does undergo a mutation in some cases and therefore can be either a Lys, or an Arg. The catalytic triad are the residues at 70, 130, and 234. The S130 helps to cleave the amide bond and distributes a proton to the nitrogen. S70 attacks the carbonyl carbon on the lactam ring before also protonating to create an alcohol and it breaks off again. K73 does work as a proton shuttle for both parts of the reaction.

The important<scene name='87/873236/Amino_acid_tert/1'> tertiary structure</scene> is how the protein folds to allow the amino acids in the catalytic triad to be near each other because in the sequence, the amino acids are not near each other. By folding, the protein is able to create the binding pocket that holds the catalytic amino acids that help Beta- Lactamase function normally.
