Screening for mobile colistin resistance gene-9 (mcr-9) in multidrug resistant uropathogenic Escherichia coli isolated from patients with urinary tract infections [PDF]
Objective Colistin and Polymyxin B form the reserve group of antibiotics. Resistance to colistin has been increasing across the world including India, posing treatment challenges to clinicians.

Dissemination of a IncHI2A plasmid co-harboring the mcr-9 and bla<sub>NDM-1</sub> genes in Israeli hospitals. [PDF]
The mcr-9 allele is typically located on IncHI2 type plasmids, but there are only few reports describing the co-occurrence of the blaNDM gene on the same plasmid. Our aims were to describe the spread of an IncHI2A plasmid harboring both the mcr-9 and the blaNDM-1 genes in a multicenter study in Israel.

Characterization of the global distribution and diversified plasmid reservoirs of the colistin resistance gene mcr-9. [PDF]
AbstractThe emergence and spread of mobilized colistin resistance (mcr) genes have triggered extensive concerns worldwide. Here, we characterized the global distribution of mcr-9, a newly-identified variant of mcr, by assembling the data set of mcr-9-positive isolates from GenBank database and the literature available. Genetic features of all the mcr-9-
