Iron regulated outer membrane proteins (IROMPs) as potential targets against carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter spp. isolated from a Medical Centre in Malaysia

In this study, a 29-kDa OMP has been identified to be the major outer membrane protein in A. baumannii / calcoaceticus and loss of this porin and overexpression of IROMPs have contributed to carbapenem resistance. Polyclonal antibodies raised against IROMPs may have a role in antimicrobial therapy i...
