Chromosome-Encoded Broad-Spectrum Ambler Class A ?-Lactamase RUB-1 from Serratia rubidaea.


ABSTRACT: Whole-genome sequencing of Serratia rubidaea CIP 103234T revealed a chromosomally located Ambler class A ?-lactamase gene. The gene was cloned, and the ?-lactamase, RUB-1, was characterized. RUB-1 displayed 74% and 73% amino acid sequence identity with the GIL-1 and TEM-1 penicillinases, respectively, and its substrate profile was similar to that of the latter ?-lactamases. Analysis by 5' rapid amplification of cDNA ends revealed promoter sequences highly divergent from the Escherichia coli ?70 consensus sequence. This work further illustrates the heterogeneity of ?-lactamases among Serratia spp.
