Molecular analysis of AmpC-producing <i>Escherichia coli</i> isolated from pediatric patients
Most ST131 strains harbored p-ampC, while all ST73 strains acquired cephalosporin resistance by c-AmpC production through promoter and attenuator mutations, suggesting the presence of both AmpC mechanisms in a lineage-specific manner in E. coli identified among hospitalized children.
