Emergence of Is Aba 1 Harboring Carbapenem-Resistant Acinetobacter Baumannii Isolates in Pakistan
5 Oct 2017
Abstract excerpt
AIM: The ISAba1 insertion sequence supports the overexpression of various oxacillinases genes by providing promoter and therefore, confers carbapenem resistance. The study aimed to determine the clonal diversity, genetic attributes of carbapenem resistance and the role of ISAba1 in the expression of oxacillinases genes among Acinetobacter baumannii clinical isolates. MATERIALS & METHODS: PCR was performed to...
