Amino Acid Sequences for TEM, SHV and OXA Extended-Spectrum and Inhibitor Resistant ß-Lactamases.

These tables grew out of an attempt to standardize the nomenclature for the growing number of TEM ß-lactamases and the intent to make it easier for investigators to discover if particular amino acid substitutions had been described before. To the TEM table we have added tables for SHV and OXA enzymes with extended-spectrum or other properties and have provided references to sources for sequence information:
