Roles of β-Lactamases and Porins in Activities of Carbapenems and Cephalosporins against Klebsiella pneumoniae
(American Society for Microbiology, 1999-07-01)
Two clinical isolates of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)- producing Klebsiella pneumoniae were noted to be less susceptible than expected to imipenem. Both were missing outer membrane proteins that serve as channels ...

Identification and characterization of a new porin gene of Klebsiella pneumoniae: Its role in β-lactam antibiotic resistance
(American Society for Microbiology, 1999)
Klebsiella pneumoniae porin genes were analyzed to detect mutations accounting for the porin deficiency observed in many β-lactam-resistant strains. PCR and Southern blot analysis revealed the existence of a third porin ...

Development of resistance during antimicrobial therapy caused by insertion sequence interruption of porin genes
(American Society for Microbiology, 1999-01-01)
We have demonstrated by using an in vitro approach that interruption of the OmpK36 porin gene by insertion sequences (ISs) is a common type of mutation that causes loss of porin expression and increased resistance to ...

Resistance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to imipenem induced by eluates from siliconized latex urinary catheters is related to outer membrane protein alterations
(American Society for Microbiology, 1999-02-01)
The activity of imipenem against Pseudomonas aeruginosa HUS-3 decreased by 16 times in the presence of substances eluted from siliconized latex urinary catheters (SLUCs). SLUCs did not inactivate imipenem or increase β- ...
