Abstract excerpt
Most Yersinia enterocolitica strains are resistant to beta-lactam antibiotics due to the production of one or two chromosomally encoded beta-lactamases. Strain Y56 is a Y. enterocolitica O:3 serotype natural isolate that is resistant to moderate amounts of penicillins and that produces a single class A beta-lactamase. To select mutants with increased levels of resistance to beta-lactam antibiotics, strain Y56 was...
