The nucleotide sequences of 59 blaTEM genes encoding inhibitor-resistant TEM enzymes showed great genetic variability and were associated with different types of promoters. These findings led us to suggest an updated blaTEM gene nomenclature based on the origin of the blaTEM gene (blaTEM-1A, blaTEM-1B, blaTEM-1C, blaTEM-1D, blaTEM-1E, and blaTEM-1F) and the promoter type.
