A widespread single amino acid mutation in AcrA reduces tigecycline susceptibility in Klebsiella pneumoniae

ABSTRACT Whole-genome sequencing of a clinical tigecycline non-susceptible Klebsiella pneumoniae strain reveals a novel T188A mutation in AcrA, raising awareness on its role in tigecycline resistance. Through structural analysis of AcrAB-TolC in Escherichia coli that is highly homologous to K. pneum...
