To determine if the TEM beta-lactamases of Haemophilus influenzae are TEM-1 or derivatives thereof and associated exclusively with the overlapping Pa/Pb promoters.
Single nucleotide specific PCR was used to discriminate the polymorphic nucleotides at positions 32 and 317 of the bla(TEM) genes of a collection of TEM-positive strains.
All bla(TEM) genes were found to be bla(TEM-1) or derivatives thereof and none bla(TEM-2). The bla(TEM) genes were associated with the P3 promoter, the Pa/Pb promoters or a novel promoter produced as a result of a 135 bp deletion and a G162T substitution.
The genetic features of bla(TEM) genes in H. influenzae are different from those in Enterobacteriaceae and more variable than previously recognized.
确定流感嗜血杆菌的 TEM β-内酰胺酶是否为 TEM-1 或其衍生物,以及是否仅与重叠的 Pa/Pb 启动子相关。
使用单核苷酸特异性 PCR 鉴别一组 TEM 阳性菌株 bla(TEM)基因第 32 和 317 位的多态性核苷酸。
所有 bla(TEM)基因均为 bla(TEM-1)或其衍生物,无 bla(TEM-2)。bla(TEM)基因与 P3 启动子、Pa/Pb 启动子或因 135 bp 缺失和 G162T 取代而产生的新型启动子相关。
流感嗜血杆菌中 bla(TEM)基因的遗传特征不同于肠杆菌科,且比之前认识到的更具变异性。
