An OXA-66/OXA-51-like carbapenemase and possibly an efflux pump are associated with resistance to imipenem in Acinetobacter baumannii.

PMID: 177241562007Taiwan

Key Findings

The study identifies blaOXA-66 as a carbapenemase contributing to imipenem resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii, and demonstrates that its overexpression increases resistance in E. coli.
