Mechanistic basis for decreased antimicrobial susceptibility in a clinical isolate of <i>Neisseria gonorrhoeae</i> possessing a mosaic-like <i>mtr</i> efflux pump locus
2018-10-22
Abstract excerpt
Recent reports suggest that mosaic-like sequences within the mtr ( m ultiple t ransferable r esistance) efflux pump locus of Neisseria gonorrhoeae likely originating from commensal Neisseria sp. by transformation can increase the ability of gonococci to resist structurally diverse antimicrobials. Thus, acquisition of numerous nucleotide changes within the mtrR gene encoding the transcriptional repressor (Mt...
