Interplay of impermeability and chromosomal beta-lactamase activity in imipenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Open access
Livermore, D M·1992·Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy

Abstract

Mutational loss of the D2 porin causes imipenem resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. It was found that this mechanism could function only when the chromosomal beta-lactamase was expressed. Mutants lacking both the beta-lactamase and the D2 porin were almost as susceptible as those that lacked the beta-lactamase but retained the porin. Thus, imipenem resistance reflected an interplay of the enzyme and impermeability, not either factor alone. These findings suggest that the activity of a carbapenem more beta-lactamase stable than imipenem should be less affected by the porin loss. Meropenem approached this behavior.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
