초록

A new extended-spectrum ${\beta}-lactamase$ with an isoelectric point (pl) of 6.2 was detected in Klebsiella pneumoniae Fl 61 that was isolated from a patient with infection. This strain was highly resistant to the third or fourth generation cephalosporins such as cceftazidime ceftriaxone, cefoperzaone, and cefpirome. Analysis of this strain by the double disk diffusion test showed synergies between amoxicillin-clavulanate (AMX-CA) and cefotaxime, and AMX-CA and aztreonam, which suggested that this strain produced a extended-spectrum ${\beta}-lactamase$ (ESBL). Cenetic analysis revealed that the resistance was due to the presence of a 9.4-kb plasmic, designated as pkpl 61, encoding for new ${\beta}-lactamase$ gene (bla). Sequence analysis showed that a new bla gene of pkpl 61 differed from $bla_{TEM-1}$ by three mutations leading to the following amino acid substitutions: $Val_{84}{\rightarrow}lie,{\;}Ala_{184}{\rightarrow}Val,{\;}and{\;}Gly_{238}{\rightarrow}Ser$. These mutations have not been reported previously in the TIM type ${\beta}-lactamases$ produced by clinical strains. The novel ${\beta}-lactamase$ was overexpressed in E. coli and purified by ion exchange chromatography on Q-Sepharose and CM-Sepharose, and then further purified by gel filtration on Sehadex G-200. The catalytic activity of th8 purified ${\beta}-lactamase$ was confirmed by the nitrocefin disk.
