In this study, we identified and characterized a novel chromosomally-encoded class B metallo-β-lactamase (MBL) gene designated <i>bla</i> <sub>WUS-1</sub> in a carbapenem-resistant isolate <i>Myroides albus</i> P34 isolated from sewage discharged from an animal farm. Comparative analysis of the deduced amino acid sequence revealed that WUS-1 shares the highest amino acid similarities with the function-characterized MBLs MUS-1 (AAN63647.1; 70.73%) and TUS-1 (AAN63648.1; 70.32%). The recombinant c ...[more]
