Plasmid-Mediated High-Level Resistance to Aminoglycosides in <i>Enterobacteriaceae</i> Due to 16S rRNA Methylation
23 Jul 2003
Abstract excerpt
A self-transferable plasmid of ca. 80 kb, pIP1204, conferred multiple-antibiotic resistance to Klebsiella pneumoniae BM4536, which was isolated from a urinary tract infection. Resistance to beta-lactams was due to the bla(TEM1) and bla(CTX-M) genes, resistance to trimethroprim was due to the dhfrXII gene, resistance to sulfonamides was due to the sul1 gene, resistance to streptomycin-spectinomycin was due to the...
