Colistin Resistance: Role of swine as reservoir of genes mcr-1, mcr-2, mcr-3, mcr-4 and mcr-5 in intensive production systems in Brazil

, 2021
A distribuição global de genes de resistência à colistina mediada por plasmídeos, como mcr-1, mcr-2, mcr-3, mcr-4 e mcr-5 representa uma preocupação para a saúde pública, uma vez que a colistina é utilizada como a última linha de defesa para o tratamento

Guanosine‐Quadruplex Hydrogels as Dynamic, Mechanically Tunable and Ion Conductive 3D Scaffolds for Cell Culture Applications

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Versatile guanosine‐quadruplex (GQ) hydrogels are developed as dynamic biomatrices for cell culture. These scaffolds are fabricated under mild aqueous conditions, present improved stability, tunable mechanical properties within physiological ranges; fibrillar, porous microstructure, ion conductivity, and cytocompatibility.

Molecular Genetic Characteristics of Plasmid-Borne mcr-9 in Salmonella enterica Serotype Typhimurium and Thompson in Zhejiang, China

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Salmonella enterica is a zoonotic food-borne pathogen threatening public health around the world. As is the case with many other pathogens, the spread of mobilized colistin resistance (mcr) alleles is of grave concern. In this study, totally 689 clinical

An Antimicrobial, Cell‐Adhesive, and Growth Factor‐Producing Living Material Engineered From Bacillus subtilis Biofilms for Wound Healing

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Bacillus subtilis is engineered to produce cell‐adhesive biofilms by functionalization of its biofilm scaffold protein TasA with a cell‐adhesion sequence. Living bacteria within the biofilm are also engineered to secrete growth factors and natively produce antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), resulting in a cell‐adhesive, antimicrobial, and growth factor ...

High Prevalence of Colistin-Resistant Encoding Genes Carriage among Patients and Healthy Residents in Vietnam

Medicina
Background and Objectives: We aimed to investigate the carriage of colistin-resistant genes among both patients with a history of antibiotic exposure and apparently healthy adults with no recent healthcare contact. Materials and Methods: Stool swabs were

Global Distribution of mcr Gene Variants in 214K Metagenomic Samples

mSystems, 2022
The ever-growing collection of metagenomic samples available in public data repositories has the potential to reveal new details on the emergence and dissemination of mobilized colistin resistance genes. Our analysis of metagenomes deposited online in the last 10 years shows that the environmental distribution of mcr

An IscS Persulfide Donates the Sulfur for Ribosomal Protein uL16 Thioamidation

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
YcaO‐catalyzed thioamidation of the ribosomal subunit protein uL16 is widespread in Pseudomonadota bacteria. We identify the iron–sulfur cluster cysteine desulfurase IscS as the sulfur donor via an IscS persulfide and observe direct IscS–uL16 interactions.

First report of multidrug-resistant carbapenemase-producing Aeromonas caviae co-harboring mcr-3.43 and mcr-7.2

Microbiology Spectrum
Hospital sewage serves as a crucial reservoir for antibiotic resistance genes. As colistin and carbapenems are the last-resort antibiotics, the emergence of their resistance genes has become a significant concern in clinical settings.
