Genetic and functional characterization of blaCTX-M-199, a novel tazobactam and sulbactam resistance-encoding gene located in a conjugative mcr-1-bearing IncI2 plasmid [PublishAheadOfPrint]

The study reported the genetic and functional characterization of a novel CTX-M-199 β-lactamase, which was encoded by a bla_CTX-M-64 variant gene found in a conjugative mcr-1-bearing IncI2 plasmid and exhibited resistance to β-lactamase inhibitors, tazobactam and sulbactam.
