We identified the genes encoding the AcrA-AcrB-TolC efflux pump in Enterobacter aerogenes and constructed acrAB and tolC mutants from a multidrug-resistant isolate. Both derivatives were more susceptible to antibiotics than the parental strain. Sequence analysis and complementation experiments revealed that the multidrug-resistant isolate is an acrR mutant.
我们鉴定了产气肠杆菌中编码AcrA-AcrB-TolC外排泵的基因,并从一株多重耐药菌株构建了acrAB和tolC突变体。这两种衍生物对抗生素的敏感性均高于亲本菌株。序列分析和互补实验表明,该多重耐药菌株是一个acrR突变体。
