Role of the AcrAB-TolC Efflux Pump in Determining Susceptibility of Haemophilus influenzae to the Novel Peptide Deformylase Inhibitor LBM415
27 Jul 2005
Abstract excerpt
Haemophilus influenzae isolates vary widely in their susceptibilities to the peptide deformylase inhibitor LBM415 (MIC range, 0.06 to 32 microg/ml); however, on average, they are less susceptible than gram-positive organisms, such as Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pneumoniae. Insertional inactivation of the H. influenzae acrB or tolC gene in strain NB65044 (Rd strain KW20) increased susceptibility to...
