“…Consistently, OmpF and OmpC-mediated resistances in E. coli were previously shown for different classes of β-lactams such as carbapenems, penicillins, cephalosporins, 22,44,46−49 as well as fluoroquinolones, 50 colicin 51 and kanamycin. 45,52 In addition, OmpF-related resistance alone was reported for the antibiotics tetracycline, aztreonam, cinoxacin, and clindamycin, 44 and OmpC was related to an increased resistance to trimethoprim, 53 tetracycline 54 and cefepime. 55 Besides confirming the prevalent role of OmpF and for the first time demonstrating a contribution of OmpC in FOS translocation, we further revealed the role of LamB in the uptake of FOS by continuous turbidimetric monitoring of E. coli growth in liquid LB medium and by gradient strip test on LB agar plates supplemented with 100 μM maltotriose (Figures 3 and S4).…”
