Characterization of chloramphenicol resistance in beta-hemolytic Escherichia coli associated with diarrhea in neonatal swine.

PMID 11825947 · 2002

The study identified the cmlA, flo, and cat-2 genes as mediators of chloramphenicol resistance in beta-hemolytic Escherichia coli isolates from neonatal swine. cmlA and flo encode efflux pumps, while cat-2 encodes a chloramphenicol acetyltransferase.
