IBC-1, a Novel Integron-Associated Class A β-Lactamase with Extended-Spectrum Properties Produced by an Enterobacter cloacae Clinical Strain

A transferable β-lactamase produced by a multidrug-resistant clinical isolate of Enterobacter cloacae was studied. The bla gene was carried by a large (>80-kb) transmissible plasmid. Nucleotide sequence analysis of cloned fragments revealed that it was part of a gene cassette carried by a class 1...
