A putative RND-type efflux pump, H239_3064, contributes to colistin resistance through CrrB in Klebsiella pneumoniae

BACKGROUND: Colistin is one of the last-resort antibiotics used to treat carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae infection. Our previous studies indicated that clinical strains encoding CrrB with amino acid substitutions exhibited higher colistin resistance (MICs ≥512 mg/L) than did colistin-resi...
