Role of inter-species recombination of the ftsI gene in the dissemination of altered penicillin-binding-protein-3-mediated resistance in Haemophilus influenzae and Haemophilus haemolyticus

Objectives: To screen the ftsI gene sequences obtained from clinical isolates of non-typeable H. influenzae (NTHi), and Haemophilus haemolyticus for the presence of mosaic ftsI gene structures, and to evaluate the role homologous recombination of the ftsI gene has on the formation and distribution o...
