Abstract excerpt
We found three variations of wild-type strains in terms of mexT-mediated regulation of the MexEF-OprN efflux pump, in which overexpression of the pump results in nfxC-type antibiotic resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Type-I: the mexT gene of the wild-type strain encoded inactive MexT and the...
