Global emergence of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae co-carrying multiple carbapenemases
The emergence of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) co-carrying multiple carbapenemases is complicating clinical treatment. This study aimed to investigate the global dissemination trends of CRKP strains that co-carry multiple ...

The CARBA-MAP study: national mapping of carbapenemases in Spain (2014–2018)
Introduction Infections caused by carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) and carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa, including isolates producing acquired carbapenemases, constitute a prevalent health problem worldwide. The primary objective of

CRISPR-Cas13a-Based Assay for Accurate Detection of OXA-48 and GES Carbapenemases
Carbapenems are one of the last-resort antibiotics for defense against multidrug-resistant pathogens. Multiple nucleic acid amplification methods, including multiplex PCR, multiplex loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) and multiplex RPAs, can ...

In recent years, the number of class D beta-lactamases with carbapenem-hydrolysing properties has increased substantially. Based on amino acid sequence identities, these class D or OXA-type carbapenemases are divided into eight distantly related groups, and they are only remotely related to other class D beta-lactamases.

Background Proteus mirabilis is an opportunistic pathogen, causing a variety of community-acquired and nosocomial illnesses. It poses a potential threat to patients via the production of β-lactamases, which decrease the efficacy of antimicrobial ...

Carbapenemases are β-lactamase enzymes that hydrolyze a variety of β-lactams including carbapenem and belong to different Ambler classes (A, B, D). These enzymes can be encoded by plasmid or chromosomal-mediated genes.

Emerging carbapenemases in Gram-negative aerobes [PDF]
Carbapenemases may be defined as β-lactamases that significantly hydrolyze at least imipenem or/and meropenem. Carbapenemases involved in acquired resistance are of Ambler molecular classes A, B, and D.
