Evolutionary robustness requires that the number of highly conserved amino acid residues in proteins is minimized. In enzymes, such conservation is observed for catalytic residues but also for some residues in the second shell or even further from the active site. β‐Lactamases evolve in response to changing antibiotic selection pressures and are thus expected to be evolutionarily robust, with a limited...
