Recombinant protein expression and enzyme kinetic studies were performed to explore the in vivo activity of the enzyme. Expression of the resistance gene exposed to antimicrobial was determined by RT-qPCR. Whole genome sequencing and bioinformatic analysis were applied to analyze the genetic context of the resistance gene.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The novel aminoglycoside (AG) resistance genes designated aph(9)-Ic and aph(9)-Ic1 confer resistance to spectinomycin, and a recombinant strain harboring aph(9)-Ic (pMD19-T-aph(9)-Ic\/DH5\u03b1) showed a significantly increased minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) level against spectinomycin compared with the control strains (DH5\u03b1 and pMD19-T\/DH5\u03b1). The result of the kinetic analysis of APH(9)-Ic was consistent with the MIC result for the recombinant pMD19-T-aph(9)-Ic\/DH5\u03b1, showing the efficient catalytic activity for spectinomycin [kcat\/Km ratio = (5.58 \u00b1 0.31) \u00d7 104 M\u22121\u00b7s\u22121]. Whole-genome sequencing demonstrated that the aph(9)-Ic gene was located on the chromosome with a relatively conserved genetic environment, and no mobile genetic element was found in its surrounding region. Among all the function-characterized resistance genes, APH(9)-Ic shares the highest amino acid sequence identity of 33.75% with APH(9)-Ia.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We characterized a novel AG resistance gene aph(9)-Ic and its variant aph(9)-Ic1 that mediated spectinomycin resistance from S. maltophilia.
