A novel gene for quinolone resistance was cloned from a transferable plasmid carried by a clinical isolate of Shigella flexneri 2b that was resistant to fluoroquinolones. The plasmid conferred low-level resistance to quinolones on Escherichia coli HB101. The protein encoded by the gene showed 59% amino acid identity with Qnr.
从一株对氟喹诺酮耐药的福氏志贺菌2b临床分离株携带的可转移质粒中克隆出一个新的喹诺酮耐药基因。该质粒赋予大肠杆菌HB101低水平的喹诺酮耐药性。该基因编码的蛋白质与Qnr的氨基酸同一性为59%。
