The gene bla(CARB-9) was located in the Vibrio cholerae super-integron, but in a different location relative to bla(CARB-7). CARB-9 (pI 5.2) conferred beta-lactam MICs four to eight times lower than those conferred by CARB-7, differing at Ambler's positions V97I, L124F, and T228K. Comparison of the genetic environments of all reported bla(CARB) genes indicated that the CARB enzymes constitute a family of cassette-encoded beta-lactamases.
bla(CARB-9)基因位于霍乱弧菌超级整合子中,但相对于bla(CARB-7)处于不同位置。CARB-9(pI 5.2)赋予的β-内酰胺最低抑菌浓度比CARB-7赋予的低4至8倍,在安布勒位置V97I、L124F和T228K处存在差异。对所有已报道的bla(CARB)基因的遗传环境进行比较表明,CARB酶构成了一个盒式编码β-内酰胺酶家族。
