Nanopore MinION Sequencing Reveals Possible Transfer of blaKPC–2 Plasmid Across Bacterial Species in Two Healthcare Facilities

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae are a major threat to global public health. Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase (KPC) is the most commonly identified carbapenemase in the United States and is frequently found on mobile genetic elements ...

Plasmid classifications

open access: yesPlasmid, 2023
Plasmids are universally present in bacteria and play key roles in the dissemination of genes such as antibiotic resistance determinants. Major concepts in Plasmid Biology derive from the efforts to classify plasmids. Here, we review the main plasmid classification systems, starting by phenotype-based methods, such as fertility inhibition and ...

Plasmids of corynebacteria [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 1999
Corynebacteria are pleomorphic, asporogenous, Gram-positive bacteria. Included in this group are nonpathogenic soil corynebacteria, which are widely used for the industrial production of amino acids and detergents, and in biotransformation of steroids. Other members of this group are plant and animal pathogens.

Exploring the genetic diversity of Edwardsiella ictaluri in Vietnamese striped catfish (Pangasianodon hypophthalmus) farms over a 20-year period

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Since first being identified in 1999, disease outbreaks from Edwardsiella ictaluri remain a significant health challenge for the farmed catfish sector in Vietnam. To better understand the population structure of E.

Use of traC Gene to Type the Incidence and Distribution of pXFAS_5235 Plasmid-Bearing Strains of Xylella fastidiosa subsp. fastidiosa ST1 in Spain

open access: yesPlants, 2022
Xylella fastidiosa (Xf) is a phytopathogenic bacterium with a repertoire of self-replicating genetic elements, including plasmids, pathogenicity islands, and prophages. These elements provide potential avenues for horizontal gene transfer both within and

Dutch patients, retail chicken meat and poultry share the same ESBL genes, plasmids and strains [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Intestinal carriage of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) -producing bacteria in food-producing animals and contamination of retail meat may contribute to increased incidences of infections with ESBL-producing bacteria in humans.
