Genetic and phenotypic characterizations of IncX3 plasmids harboring bla NDM-5 and bla NDM-16b in Japan

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
The spread of the gene encoding the NDM-type carbapenemase, bla NDM, poses a serious threat to clinical practice and public health. This gene is usually carried by transferable plasmids, which facilitates its rapid spread among various species of ...

Effect of Zinc Oxide and Copper Sulfate on Antibiotic Resistance Plasmid Transfer in Escherichia coli

Microorganisms, 2023
Heavy metals such as zinc (Zn) and copper (Cu) may be associated with antibiotic resistance dissemination. Our aim was to investigate whether sub-lethal dosage of Zn and Cu may enhance plasmid transfer and subsequently resistance genes dissemination ...

Genomic and functional characterisation of IncX3 plasmids encoding blaSHV-12 in Escherichia coli from human and animal origin [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2018
The blaSHV-12 β-lactamase gene is one of the most prevalent genes conferring resistance to extended-spectrum β-lactams in Enterobacteriaceae disseminating within and between reservoirs, mostly via plasmid-mediated horizontal gene transfer.

Case Report of bla _NDM-7-Harboring IncX3 Plasmid in ST196 Klebsiella quasipneumoniae in China. [PDF]

Infect Drug Resist, 2022
Klebsiella quasipneumoniae isolate SBH035 was recovered from a patient in Jiangsu Province, China. The isolate showed resistance to ampicillin, cefazolin, cefotaxime, meropenem, ceftazidime-avibactam, and fosfomycin. The carbapenemase-encoding gene bla NDM-7 was identified, and whole genome sequencing analysis indicated that bla NDM-7 was located in an
