Overexpression of Resistance-Nodulation-Cell Division Pump AdeFGH Confers Multidrug Resistance in <i>Acinetobacter baumannii</i>
10 Aug 2010
Abstract excerpt
Acinetobacter baumannii is a major nosocomial pathogen which frequently develops multidrug resistance by acquisition of antibiotic resistance genes and overexpression of intrinsic efflux systems, such as the RND efflux pumps AdeABC and AdeIJK. A third RND system was characterized by studying spontaneous mutants BM4663 and BM4664, which were selected in the presence of chloramphenicol and norfloxacin,...
