Abstract
Tryptic peptides of the novel ceftazidimase CAZ-5 were sequenced by manual Edman degradation and aligned according to strong homology (more than 98%) with SHV-1 and SHV-2 beta-lactamase sequences. CAZ-5 differed from SHV-1 by five amino acid substitutions. Unusually high activity of CAZ-5 towards ceftazidime was imputed to substitution of a Lys for a Glu at position 214 of the mature protein.
