## Abstract The SHV‐type β‐lactamase SHV‐2A is related to SHV‐1 by a Gly‐238‐Ser replacement. Strains carrying SHV‐2A are resistant to the third generation cephems cefotaxime and ceftizoxime, whereas those that carry SHV‐1 are sensitive to these drugs. We present a kinetic analysis of a SHV‐1 and S

Bacterial resistance to ␤-lactam antibiotics, a clinically worrying and recurrent problem, is often due to the production of ␤-lactamases, enzymes that efficiently hydrolyze the amide bond of the ␤-lactam nucleus. Imipenem and other carbapenems escape the activity of most active site serine ␤-lactam
