Abstract excerpt
The class 1 cephalosporinase (CepH) and class 2d oxacillinase (AmpH) from an Aeromonas hydrophila clinical isolate, strain T429125, have been cloned and sequenced. Both enzymes are typical of their equivalents in other species of Aeromonas Both cloned beta-lactamase genes were expressed at a low level in a standard laboratory Escherichia coli strain, but when cloned into a cre deletion E. coli mutant, they were...
