Abstract excerpt
In order to compare patterns of resistance to inhibition by clavulanic acid with patterns of resistance to inhibition by a beta-lactamase inhibitor protein (BLIP), R164S, R244S, and R164S/R244S mutant forms of TEM beta-lactamase were prepared by site-directed mutagenesis. When kinetic parameters were determined for these mutant and wild-type forms of TEM, the single mutants showed properties that were similar to...
