The functional convergence of antibiotic resistance in β‐lactamases is not conferred by a simple convergent substitution of amino acid
Abstract Bacterial resistance to antibiotics is a serious medical and public health concern worldwide. Such resistance is conferred by a variety of mechanisms, but the extensive variability in levels of resistance across bacteria is a common finding. Understanding the underlying evolutionary process...
