Pharmacology
Indication Used in combination with piperacillin to broaden the spectrum of piperacillin antibacterial action.
Pharmacodynamics Tazobactam is a compound which inhibits the action of bacterial beta-lactamases. It is added to the extended spectrum beta-lactam antibiotic piperacillin.
Mechanism of action Tazobactam broadens the spectrum of piperacillin by making it effective against organisms that express beta-lactamase and would normally degrade piperacillin.

Targets

1. Beta-lactamase SHV-1 precursor

Pharmacological action: unknown
Actions: inhibitor

A beta-lactam + H(2)O = a substituted beta- amino acid

Organism class: bacterial
UniProt ID: P0AD63 Link_out
Gene: bla
Protein Sequence: FASTA
Gene Sequence: FASTA
SNPs: SNPJam Report Link_out

2. Beta-lactamase TEM

Pharmacological action: yes
Actions: inhibitor

TEM-type are the most prevalent beta-lactamases in enterobacteria; they hydrolyze the beta-lactam bond in susceptible beta-lactam antibiotics, thus conferring resistance to penicillins and cephalosporins
