Aminoglycoside antibiotics: inactivation by phosphorylation in Escherichia coli carrying R factors.
نویسندگان
چکیده
R-factor strains which are streptomycin-resistant and spectinomycin-sensitive have been found to inactivate streptomycin by a new mechanism. The 3'-OH group of the 2-deoxy-2-methylamino-l-glucopyranosyl moiety is phosphorylated.

Streptomycin Uptake in Resistant Strains of Escherichia coli
Different streptomycin-resistant strains of Escherichia coli, including an R100 plasmid-carrying strain of E. coli W3110, the ribosomally resistant mutant SM10, and the spontaneous revertant from dependence to independence d1023, exhibited poor accumulation capacity for aminoglycoside antibiotics. This was due to a faiMlre of these mutants to induce the general polyamine transport system that i...
متن کاملResistance to Aminoglycoside Antibiotics in Escherichia coli Isolated from Urinary Tract Infection in Iran in 2000-2012: A Systematic Review
Background and Objectives: Resistance to aminoglycosides has become a major problem in the treatment of urinary tract infection due to the extensive use of this antibiotic group. Due to the increased resistance of Escherichia coli to aminoglycosides, this study systematically evaluated the resistance to aminoglycosides by Escherichia coli isolated from urinary tract infection (UTI) in Ira...

Abstract Background and Objective: Escherichia coli, one of the most common causative agents of urinary tract infections (UTIs) acquired from community and hospital, has developed multiple resistances to various antibiotics such as aminoglycosides. The main resistance mechanism to aminoglycosides is inactivation of these drugs by a variety of acetyltransferase, nucleotidyltransferase, and phosp...
متن کاملبررسی انتشار ژن ant(2′′)-Ia در اشریشیا کلی‌های مقاوم به آمینوگلیکوزید جدا شده از ادرار به روش PCR
Background and purpose: Escherichia coli is the most prevalent etiologic agent of urinary tract infection. Enzymatic inactivation of aminoglycosides by aminoglycoside-modifying enzymes is the main mechanism of resistance to these antibiotics in E. coli. The aim of this study was detecting the ant(2′′)-Ia gene among aminoglycoside resistant clinical isolates of E. coli using PCR method. Materia...
متن کاملTwo enzymes which phosphorylate neomycin and kanamycin in Escherichia coli strains carrying R factors.
Two enzymes which phosphorylate neomycin and kanamycin have been detected in Escherichia coli strains carrying R factors. Neomycin-kanamycin phosphotransferase I can phosphorylate neomycin and kanamycin, but not butirosin. Neomycin-kanamycin phosphotransferase II can phosphorylate all three antibiotics. The enzymes also differ in their response to certain inhibitors of phosphorylation. Neomycin...
