Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is of huge importance, resulting in over 1 million deaths each year. Here, we describe how a new drug, enmetazobactam, designed to help fight resistant bacterial diseases, inhibits a key enzyme (GES‐1) responsible for AMR. Our data show it is a more potent inhibitor than the related tazobactam, with high‐level computation

AIM: We report the characteristics of extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) and plasmid-mediated AmpC β-lactamases (p-AmpC), encountered among hospital and community isolates of [P. mirabilis].

Antibiotic Resistance: A Genetic and Physiological Perspective
The development of resistance to antimicrobials and their historical progression are depicted in this graphic. It draws attention to important biochemical, physiological, and genetic factors that contribute to AMR, such as the transmission of genes, the development of biofilms, and the inactivation of antibiotics.

Antibiotics as selectors and accelerators 1 of diversity in the mechanisms of resistance: from the resistome to genetic plasticity in the β-lactamases world [PDF]
Antibiotics and antibiotic resistance determinants, natural molecules closely related to bacterial physiology and consistent with an ancient origin, are not only present in antibiotic-producing bacteria.

Deep Pyoderma Caused by Serratia marcescens in a Border Collie in China
GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT A 4‐year‐old Border Collie with deep pyoderma caused by Serratia marcescens exhibited erythematous patches over the abdomen and ruptured pustules scattered on the back. The dog was successfully treated with marbofloxacin at 2.7 mg/kg once daily.

Analysis for prevalence and physical linkages amongst integrons, ISEcp1, ISCR1, Tn21 and Tn7 encountered in Escherichia coli strains from hospitalized and non-hospitalized patients in Kenya during a 19-year period (1992-2011) [PDF]
Background: We determined the prevalence and evidence for physical linkage amongst integrons, insertion sequences, Tn21 and Tn7 transposons in a collection of 1327 E. coli obtained over a 19-year period from patients in Kenya.

Selection of mutants with resistance or diminished susceptibility to ceftazidime/avibactam from ESBL- and AmpC- producing Enterobacteriaceae [PDF]
Introduction: Difficult Gram-negative infections are increasingly treated with new β-lactamase inhibitor combinations, e.g. ceftazidime/avibactam.

Kuhara and colleagues analyzed 366 cases of bacteremic acute cholangitis, focusing on pathogens isolated from blood cultures. Escherichia coli and Klebsiella spp. predominated overall, whereas ESCPM organisms were significantly more frequent in patients with prior biliary‐enteric anastomosis or intervention, highlighting the importance of considering ...
