Fosfomycin resistance in<i>Acinetobacter baumannii</i>is mediated by efflux through a major facilitator superfamily (MFS) transporter—AbaF

Abstract

The results of this study suggest that efflux is an important mechanism of fosfomycin resistance and AbaF is involved in fosfomycin resistance in A. baumannii. AbaF also seems to play a role in biofilm formation and virulence of A. baumannii.
