This change introduced a premature termination codon, leading to the truncated CpxA_HatR variant that contained 234 amino acids instead of 464. Complementation, which consisted of transfer of the WT cpxA into the resistant S. marcescens derivative, restored completely its susceptibility to ESCs, aminoglycosides and ciprofloxacin, thus confirming the contribution of the CpxA_HatR variant to resistance. Growth analysis showed that the fitness of the resistant isolate was unchanged.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>This study shows for the first time that constitutive activation of the Cpx pathway can per se confer resistance to ESCs and ciprofloxacin, in addition to the aminoglycoside resistance usually described.
