A new rifampin resistance gene, arr-2, has been found in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The ARR-2 protein shows 54% amino acid identity to the rifampin ADP-ribosylating transferase encoded by the arr gene from Mycobacterium smegmatis. This arr-2 gene is located on a gene cassette within a class I integron.
在铜绿假单胞菌中发现了一种新的利福平抗性基因arr-2。ARR-2蛋白与耻垢分枝杆菌arr基因编码的利福平ADP-核糖基转移酶的氨基酸同一性为54%。该arr-2基因位于Ⅰ类整合子内的一个基因盒上。
