New Insertion Sequence Elements in the Upstream Region of cfiA in Imipenem-Resistant Bacteroides fragilis Strains

The 747-bp cfiA gene, which encodes a metallo-β-lactamase, and the regions flanking cfiA in six imipenem-resistant and four imipenem-susceptible Bacteroides fragilis strains isolated in Japan were analyzed by PCR and DNA sequencing. The nucleotide sequences of the cfiA genes (designated cfiA(1) to c...
