Antibacterial activities of a fosfomycin/tobramycin combination: a novel inhaled antibiotic for bronchiectasis.

J. Antimicrob. Chemother. 64 , 829-836, (2009)

To compare the in vitro and in vivo activities of a 4:1 (w/w) fosfomycin/tobramycin combination (FTI) with those of fosfomycin and tobramycin alone against cystic fibrosis (CF) and non-CF bronchiectasis pathogens.Clinical isolates of CF Pseudomonas aeruginosa...

Alteration of a single amino acid residue reverses fosfomycin resistance of recombinant MurA from Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Microbiology 145 , 3177-3184, (1999)

Mycobacterium tuberculosis has innate resistance to a range of broad-spectrum antimicrobial agents. This may in part reflect the relative impermeability of the mycobacterial cell wall, but additional specific mechanisms may also be important. In the case of f...

FosB, a cysteine-dependent fosfomycin resistance protein under the control of sigma(W), an extracytoplasmic-function sigma factor in Bacillus subtilis.

J. Bacteriol. 183 , 2380-2383, (2001)

We demonstrate that the Bacillus subtilis fosB(yndN) gene encodes a fosfomycin resistance protein. Expression of fosB requires sigma(W), and both fosB and sigW mutants are fosfomycin sensitive. FosB is a metallothiol transferase related to the FosA class of M...
