Emergence of Tigecycline‐Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa Harbouring tmexC6D6‐toprJ1b From Hospital Sewage in Japan

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
This study isolated a Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain (KAM950) carrying the tmexCD‐toprJ gene cluster from hospital sewage in Japan. The strain exhibited reduced susceptibility to tigecycline and carbapenems, harboured chromosomal tmexC6D6‐toprJ1b and oprD disruption, and belonged to epidemic clone ST244, emphasising emerging multidrug resistance and the
