چکیده

Aminoglycoside 3'-phosphotransferases I and II in three strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa were studied in comparison with those in two strains of R factor-carrying Escherichia coli. The strain TI-13 of P. aeruginosa produced the former and strain H-9 the latter. Strain B-13 produced the both enzymes. The 3'-phosphotransferases of type I in P. aeruginosa TI-13, B-13 and E. coli K12 J5 R11-2 were different from each other in chromatographic behavior, molecular weight, pH optimum, and Ii. The 3'-phosphotransferase of type II in P. aeruginosa H-9 and E. coli JR66/W677 showed the same behavior.

Sequence and characterization of a novel chromosomal aminoglycoside phosphotransferase gene, aph (3')-IIb, in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

A novel, probably chromosomally encoded, aminoglycoside phosphotransferase gene was cloned on a 2,996-bp PstI fragment from Pseudomonas aeruginosa and designated aph (3')-IIb. It coded for a protein of 268 amino acids that showed 51.7% amino acid identity with APH (3')-II [APH(3') is aminoglycoside-3' phosphotransferase] from Tn5. Two other open reading frames on the cloned fragment showed homo...

The prevalence of aminoglycoside-modifying enzyme genes (aac (6′)-I, aac (6′)-II, ant (2″)-I, aph (3′)-VI) in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

INTRODUCTION Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) is one of the primary opportunistic pathogens responsible for nosocomial infections. Aminoglycosides are an import ant component of antipseudomonal chemotherapy. The inactivation of drugs by modifying enzymes is the most common mechanism of aminoglycoside resistance. OBJECTIVES The inactivation of aminoglycosides by modifying enzymes is the ...

Overexpression and initial characterization of the chromosomal aminoglycoside 3'-O-phosphotransferase APH(3')-IIb from Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

The chromosomal gene aph(3')-IIb, encoding an aminoglycoside 3'-phosphotransferase in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, was cloned and overexpressed in Escherichia coli. The APH(3')-IIb enzyme was purified as a monomer in a two-step procedure and was shown to phosphorylate its substrates at the C-3'-OH position, with kcat/Km values of 0.4x10(4) to 36x10(4) M-1 s-1.

Investigating Class I, II and III Integrons in Multidrug Resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa Isolated from Hospital Infections in Ahvaz

Background and Aims: The indiscriminate use of antibiotics can lead to antibiotic resistance in the treatment of infections caused by bacteria such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The presence of integrons in Pseudomonas is clearly associated with multidrug resistances. Therefore, this study aimed at tracking class I, II and III integrons of antibiotic-resistant isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa th...

Novel 3-N-aminoglycoside acetyltransferase gene, aac(3)-Ic, from a Pseudomonas aeruginosa integron.

A novel gene, aac(3)-Ic, encoding an AAC(3)-I aminoglycoside 3-N-acetyltransferase, was identified on a gene cassette inserted into a Pseudomonas aeruginosa integron that also carries a bla(VIM-2) and a cmlA7 gene cassette. The aac(3)-Ic gene product is 59 and 57% identical to AAC(3)-Ia and AAC(3)-Ib, respectively, and confers resistance to gentamicin and sisomicin.
