dihydrofolate reductase
Overview
High-level resistance to trimethoprim in clinical isolates of Campylobacter jejuni by acquisition of foreign genes (dfr1 and dfr9) expressing drug-insensitive dihydrofolate reductases.
The study identifies dfr1 and dfr9 genes as responsible for high-level trimethoprim resistance in Campylobacter jejuni clinical isolates, demonstrating that these foreign genes encode drug-insensitive dihydrofolate reductases.
