First Report of blaVIM-4- and mcr-9-Coharboring Enterobacter Species Isolated from a Pediatric Patient

open access: yesmSphere, 2019
An Enterobacter hormaechei isolate harboring blaVIM-4 and mcr-9 was recovered from a pediatric patient in a U.S. hospital. The blaVIM-4 and mcr-9 genes are carried on the same IncH12 plasmid, pME-1a.

Whole-Genome Sequencing of Clinically Isolated Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacterales Harboring mcr Genes in Thailand, 2016–2019

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Mobile colistin-resistant genes (mcr) have become an increasing public health concern. Since the first report of mcr-1 in Thailand in 2016, perspective surveillance was conducted to explore the genomic characteristics of clinical carbapenem-resistant ...

Identification of Novel Mobilized Colistin Resistance Gene mcr-9 in a Multidrug-Resistant, Colistin-Susceptible Salmonella enterica Serotype Typhimurium Isolate

open access: yesmBio, 2019
Mobilized colistin resistance (mcr) genes are plasmid-borne genes that confer resistance to colistin, an antibiotic used to treat severe bacterial infections. To date, eight known mcr homologues have been described (mcr-1 to -8). Here, we describe mcr-9,

Co-occurrence of blaNDM-1, rmtC, and mcr-9 in multidrug-resistant Enterobacter kobei strain isolated from an infant with urinary tract infection

open access: yesJournal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance, 2023
: Objectives: The co-emergence of mcr and carbapenem resistance genes in Gram-negative bacteria is a serious problem. This study aims to clarify the genetic characteristic of one novel multidrug-resistant Enterobacter kobei EC1382 with mcr-9 causing ...

Large-scale genomic survey and characterization of mcr genes carried by foodborne Cronobacter isolates

open access: yesmSystems, 2023
Antibiotic resistance has become a worldwide public health and biosafety problem. The clinical efficacy of colistin was jeopardized by the report of the first mobile colistin resistance (mcr) gene, and subsequently, the mcr-gene family of mcr-1 to mcr-10

High prevalence of colistin resistance and mcr-9/10 genes in Enterobacter spp. in a tertiary hospital over a decade

open access: yesInternational Journal of Antimicrobial Agents, 2022
Enterobacter spp. are members of the 'ESKAPE' group of pathogens, which which are recognised as the leading cause of multidrug-resistant (MDR) hospital-acquired infections. Colistin is usually regarded as a last-line therapeutic option for MDR Gram-negative bacilli infections. However, colistin-resistant Enterobacter spp.
