ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate whether Pseudomonas aeruginosa pvdQ( PA2385 ) gene reveals altered antibiotic susceptibility under swarming conditions. Methods The plasmid pME6032 with pvdQ gene was constructed and identified, then transformed into Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 by the electroporation, building pvdQ overexpression strain. Using the same method building pME6032-PAO1 strain.Bacteria were inoculated in LB overnight , measuring the colony diameter of the swarming zone . Results Strains of pvdQ overexpression was successfully constructed by real-time PCR. Comparison of two strains of the swarming motility of change in diameter: The result showed that PAO1 and pvdQ overexpression strains can both improve the antibiotics resistance. Swarmer cells of pvdQ overexpression strain exhibited a 2- to 4-fold increase in antibiotic resistance toward ceftazidime,ciprofloxacin, meropenem and polymyxin B compared to PAO1 on BM2-swarming agar plates. Conclusion pvdQ gene played an important role in elevating the antibiotics resistance, which through prarticipated in the swarmer cell differentiation.
