Role of the BaeSR two-component system in the regulation of Acinetobacter baumannii adeAB genes and its correlation with tigecycline susceptibility
9 May 2014
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Tigecycline resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii is primarily acquired through overexpression of the AdeABC efflux pump. Besides AdeRS, other two-component regulatory systems (TCSs) involving the regulation of this transporter have not been clarified. RESULTS: In this study, we found that the TCS genes baeR and baeS are co-transcribed and function as stress responders under high osmotic conditions....
