Genomic Characterization of Extended‐Spectrum β‐Lactamase (ESBL) Producing E. coli Harboring blaOXA−1‐catB3-arr-3 Genes Isolated From Dairy Farm Environment in China

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Anthropogenic activities in the environment affect the ecosystem and can play an important role in selecting and spreading antibiotic‐resistant bacteria (ARB) and genes (ARGs). The dairy farm environment may serve as a hotspot and reservoir for exchanging and spreading ARGs, but studies are scarce.

Emergence of a Multidrug-Resistant Enterobacter hormaechei Clinical Isolate from Egypt Co-Harboring mcr-9 and bla_VIM-4

Microorganisms, 2020
This study describes the first full genomic sequence of an mcr-9 and blaVIM-4-carrying multidrug-resistant Enterobacter hormaechei clinical isolate from Egypt. The strain was isolated in April 2015 from the sputum of a patient in Cairo, Egypt.

Indole May Help the Horizontal Transmission of Antibiotic Resistance Genes in E. coli Under Subinhibitory Concentrations of Cefotaxime Stress

Cellular Microbiology, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Objectives: Subinhibitory concentration of antibiotics in the environment is an important risk factor for the horizontal transmission of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). The signaling mechanism of resistance gene transmission remains unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate whether indole could be used as a molecular signal to help the ...

Plasmid‐Mediated Co‐Occurrence of mcr-1.1 in Extended‐Spectrum β‐Lactamase (ESBL)‐Producing Escherichia coli Isolated From the Indigenous Seminomadic Community in Malaysia

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
The growing prevalence of commensal antibiotic resistant Escherichia coli poses a significant concern for the global spread of antibiotic resistance. Stool samples (n = 35) from a seminomadic indigenous community in Malaysia, the Jehai, were screened for multidrug‐resistant bacteria, specifically the extended‐spectrum β‐lactamase (ESBL) producers ...

Identification and Genomic Analyses of a Multidrug Resistant Avian Pathogenic Escherichia coli Coharboring mcr-1, blaTEM-176 and blaCTX-M-14 Genes

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
The emergence and transmission of the colistin‐resistance gene mcr and extended‐spectrum β‐lactamase (ESBL) encoding genes pose a significant threat to global public health. In recent years, it has been reported that mcr-1 and ESBL genes can coexist in single bacteria strain.

Genomic insights into multidrug-resistant Enterobacter hormaechei isolates from seafood at retail carrying the mcr-9 gene and other resistance determinants on IncHI2 plasmids

Journal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance
: Objectives: We aimed to characterise the genomic features of two multidrug-resistant (MDR) isolates from retail seafood samples. Methods: Antimicrobial susceptibility was determined by minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) tests.

Phage inhibition, colicin resistance, and tellurite resistance are encoded by a single cluster of genes on the IncHI2 plasmid R478

Journal of Bacteriology, 1995
A region of the IncHI2 plasmid R478, encoding the phenotypes of tellurite resistance (Ter), phage inhibition (Phi), and colicin resistance (PacB), was cloned and sequenced. Analysis indicated seven open reading frames (ORFs), whose genes were designated terZ, -A, -B, -C, -D, -E, and -F.

pSTM6-275, a Conjugative IncHI2 Plasmid of Salmonella enterica That Confers Antibiotic and Heavy-Metal Resistance under Changing Physiological Conditions

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2018
ABSTRACT Detailed annotation of an IncHI2 plasmid, pSTM6-275, from Salmonella enterica serotype 1,4,5,12:i:- strain TW-Stm6 revealed a composite structure, including antimicrobial resistance genes on mobile genetic elements. The plasmid was thermosensitive for transfer to Escherichia coli

New insights on mcr-1-harboring plasmids from human clinical Escherichia coli isolates.

PLoS ONE
Mobile colistin resistance (mcr) genes were described recently in Gram-negative bacteria including carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales. There are ten mcr genes described in different Gram-negative bacteria, however, Escherichia coli harboring mcr-1 ...
