title: Effects of F171 mutations in the 6'-N-acetyltransferase type Ib [AAC(6')-Ib] enzyme on susceptibility to aminoglycosides.
abstract: Substitutions at position F171 of 6'-N-acetyltransferase type Ib cause variable loss of aminoglycoside resistance, indicating that this residue plays an important role in the structure and/or function of the enzyme.
