Disease relevance of mutS

 

High impact information on mutS

  • This study compared the frequencies of emerging ceftazidime resistance in isogenic wild-type and hyper-mutable mutS CTX-M-3-producing Escherichia coli strains, and sequenced the mutant bla(CTX-M) alleles selected [2].
 

Associations of mutS with chemical compounds

  • Moreover, although ceftazidime-resistant mutants, or those with reduced susceptibility, were selected in both the wild-type and mutS hosts, many more mutants in the mutS host showed ceftazidimase-type extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) activity [1].
