Dissemination of Linezolid Resistance Through Sex Pheromone Plasmid Transfer in Enterococcus faecalis

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Despite recent recognition of the ATP-binding cassette protein OptrA as an important mediator of linezolid resistance in Enterococcus faecalis worldwide, the mechanisms of optrA gene acquisition and transfer remain poorly understood.

Genetic Characterization of a Linezolid- and Penicillin-Resistant <i>Enterococcus hirae</i> Isolate Co-Harboring <i>poxtA</i> and <i>pbp5fm</i>. [PDF]

open access: yesTransbound Emerg Dis
Linezolid and penicillin are critical for treating multidrug resistant (MDR) Gram‐positive infections, but the emergence of resistance to both seriously threatens public health. Here, we first report the cocarrying poxtA (oxazolidinone resistance) and pbp5fm (β‐lactam resistance) genes by the plasmid in a strain of Enterococcus hirae HDC14‐2 derived ...

Analysis of combined resistance to oxazolidinones and phenicols among bacteria from dogs fed with raw meat/vegetables and the respective food items [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The gene optrA is the first gene that confers resistance to the oxazolidinone tedizolid, a last resort antimicrobial agent in human medicine. In this study we investigated the presence of optrA and the multi-resistance genes poxtA and cfr in enterococci ...

Rapid Identification of Species, Antimicrobial‐Resistance Genotypes and Phenotypes of Gram‐Positive Cocci Using Long Short‐Term Memory Raman Spectra Methods

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 5, Issue 4, April 2023., 2023
Herein, a novel method that used artificial intelligence to analyze biological Raman spectra to identify microbes and their antimicrobial resistance at both genotype and phenotype levels is developed. The novel method exhibits higher level of accuracy than those obtained using the machine learning algorithms.
