Abstract excerpt
We compared the frequencies of imipenem-resistant (imi-r) mutants of a Pseudomonas aeruginosa laboratory strain PAO1 infected by the phages-transposons (PT) specific for this pseudomonad species. The frequency of imi-r mutants among the lysogenic bacteria that appeared after infection reflects the frequency of integrative (conserved) PT transposition into ompD2 gene responsible for synthesis of porin, the protein...
