Abstract excerpt
Overexpression of the acrAB genes regulated by RamA and overexpression of oqxAB regulated by RarA have been reported to mediate multidrug resistance in Gram-negative bacilli. In this study, regulation of acrAB and oqxAB simultaneously by the global regulator RamA was investigated in a multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolate (KP22) resistant to tigecycline and other antimicrobials. KP22...
