Abstract excerpt
A chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (catB7) gene containing two point mutations, 181A/G and 314A/G, has been recently reported to be a determinant for high-level chloramphenicol resistance phenotype in a Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain PAhcr1. The mutant CATB7 was further characterized in vitro and in vivo to elucidate the molecular basis of high-level resistance. CAT assay demonstrated that the mutant and...
