The influence of qnrA1 on the development of quinolone resistance in Enterobacteriaceae was evaluated by using the mutant prevention concentration parameter. The expression of qnrA1 considerably increased the mutant prevention concentration compared to strains without this gene. In the presence of qnrA1, mutations in gyrA and parC genes were easily selected to produce high levels of quinolone resistance.
通过使用突变预防浓度参数评估了qnrA1对肠杆菌科细菌喹诺酮耐药性发展的影响。与没有该基因的菌株相比,qnrA1的表达显著提高了突变预防浓度。在qnrA1存在的情况下,gyrA和parC基因的突变很容易被选择出来,从而产生高水平的喹诺酮耐药性。
