Limited Genetic Diversity of blaCMY-2-Containing IncI1-pST12 Plasmids from Enterobacteriaceae of Human and Broiler Chicken Origin in The Netherlands

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2020
Distinguishing epidemiologically related and unrelated plasmids is essential to confirm plasmid transmission. We compared IncI1–pST12 plasmids from both human and livestock origin and explored the degree of sequence similarity between plasmids from ...

Comparative genomic analysis of two novel plasmids from Acidithiobacillus ferrivorans strain PQ33

open access: yesRevista Peruana de Biología, 2021
Acidithiobacillus ferrivorans is a psychrotolerant acidophile capable of growing and oxidizing ferrous and sulphide substrates at low temperatures. To date, six genomes of this organism have been characterized; however, evidence of a plasmid in this ...

Molecular Characterization and Comparative Genomics of IncQ-3 Plasmids Conferring Resistance to Various Antibiotics Isolated from a Wastewater Treatment Plant in Warsaw (Poland)

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2020
As small, mobilizable replicons with a broad host range, IncQ plasmids are widely distributed among clinical and environmental bacteria. They carry antibiotic resistance genes, and it has been shown that they confer resistance to β-lactams ...

Identification of a novel plasmid-mediated colistin-resistance gene, mcr-2, in Escherichia coli, Belgium, June 2016.

open access: yesEuro surveillance : bulletin Europeen sur les maladies transmissibles = European communicable disease bulletin, 2016
We identified a novel plasmid-mediated colistin-resistance gene in porcine and bovine colistin-resistant Escherichia coli that did not contain mcr-1. The gene, termed mcr-2, a 1,617 bp phosphoethanolamine transferase harboured on an IncX4 plasmid, has 76.

Detecting plasmid-mediated dissemination of blaKPC-3 and blaOXA-48-like genes in Enterobacterales across Finnish healthcare organizations using hybrid genome assembly

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
The spread of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPE) is a global concern. While the majority of the CPE outbreaks are due to clonal spread, recent findings highlight the transmission of carbapenemase gene-carrying plasmids across various ...

Carbapenemases: Transforming Acinetobacter baumannii into a Yet More Dangerous Menace

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
Acinetobacter baumannii is a common cause of serious nosocomial infections. Although community-acquired infections are observed, the vast majority occur in people with preexisting comorbidities. A. baumannii emerged as a problematic pathogen in the 1980s

A large conjugative Acinetobacter baumannii plasmid carrying the sul2 sulphonamide and strAB streptomycin resistance genes.

open access: yes, 2022
Acinetobacter baumannii is an important nosocomial pathogen that often complicates treatment because of its high level of resistance to antibiotics. Though plasmids can potentially introduce various genes into bacterial strains, compared to other Gram ...

Enhancing student understanding of genetic cloning through a 3D-printed active learning activity and flipped classroom curriculum

open access: yesJournal of Microbiology & Biology Education
This classroom curriculum is designed to teach the topic of cloning in both small- and large-enrollment undergraduate general microbiology courses. Students often struggle to grasp and visualize genetic engineering or cloning, in which a piece of DNA is ...
