To further elucidate the induction process of the carbapenem-hydrolyzing beta-lactamase of Ambler class A, NmcA, ampD genes of the wild-type (WT) strain and of ceftazidime-resistant mutants of Enterobacter cloacae NOR-1 were cloned and tested in transcomplementation experiments. Ceftazidime-resistant E. cloacae NOR-1 mutants exhibited derepressed expression of the AmpC-type cephalosporinase and of the carbapenem-hydrolyzing beta-lactamase NmcA. The ampD genes of Escherichia coli and E. cloacae WT NOR-1 transcomplemented the ceftazidime-resistant E. cloacae NOR-1 mutants to the WT level of beta-lactamase expression, while the mutated ampD alleles of E. cloacae NOR-1 failed to do so. The deduced E. cloacae NOR-1 WT AmpD protein exhibited 95 and 91% amino acid identity with the E. cloacae O29 and E. cloacae 14 WT AmpD proteins, respectively. Of the 12 ceftazidime-resistant E. cloacae NOR-1 strains, 3 had AmpD proteins with amino acid changes, while the others had truncated AmpD proteins. Most of these mutations were located outside the conserved regions that link the AmpD proteins to the cell wall hydrolases. AmpD from E. cloacae NOR-1 is involved in the regulation of expression of both beta-lactamases (NmcA and AmpC), suggesting that structurally unrelated genes may be under the control of an identical genetic system.
