“…To analyze the genes responsible for Polymyxins resistance we investigated the presence of mutations in PmrA, PmrB and the lpxA, lpxC, lpxD genes. [26][27][28][29][30][31] Acinetobacter baumannii strains characterized by ST281, ST195, ST744 do not present any mutations for the PmrA, lpxA, lpxC genes. The analysis of PmrB gene showed that the ST281 presented 3 mutations (P188T, N440H, A444V), the ST744 had 2 mutations (L237M, N440H) and finally the ST195 displayed 3 mutations (P170L, N440H, A444V).…”
