Characterization of poxtA, a novel phenicol–oxazolidinone–tetracycline resistance gene from an MRSA of clinical origin [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2018
To characterize a novel phenicol-oxazolidinone-tetracycline resistance gene, named poxtA, identified in a previously described MRSA strain that was highly resistant to linezolid and also carried the cfr gene.The poxtA gene was identified by bioinformatic analysis of the whole genome sequence of Staphylococcus aureus AOUC-0915. The poxtA gene was cloned

An Enterococcus faecium Isolated from Bovine Feces in Italy Shares optrA- and poxtA-Carrying Plasmids with Enterococci from Switzerland

open access: yesMicrobial Drug Resistance, 2023
To investigate the occurrence of oxazolidinone resistance genes, 18 florfenicol-resistant enterococci were isolated from 66 fecal samples collected from several cattle farms in central Italy. The PCR screening indicated that only a bovine florfenicol-resistant isolate, Enterococcus faecium 249031-C, was positive for the presence of optrA and poxtA ...

Analysis of a poxtA- and optrA-co-carrying conjugative multiresistance plasmid from Enterococcus faecalis

open access: yesJournal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2019
To investigate the presence and transferability of the poxtA gene and identify the genetic context of poxtA in two enterococcal plasmids from swine.MICs were determined by broth microdilution. A total of 114 porcine enterococci with florfenicol MICs of ≥16 mg/L were screened for the presence of the poxtA gene by PCR.

Emergence of plasmid-mediated oxazolidinone resistance gene poxtA from CC17 Enterococcus faecium of pig origin

open access: yesJournal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2019
AbstractObjectivesTo characterize the oxazolidinone resistance gene poxtA on broad-host-range Inc18 plasmids from CC17 Enterococcus faecium of pig origin.MethodsOxazolidinone-resistant E. faecium isolates were screened for the presence of poxtA. The poxtA-carrying isolates were characterized by antimicrobial susceptibility testing, conjugation, S1-PFGE

Interregional spread in Spain of linezolid-resistant Enterococcus spp. isolates carrying the optrA and poxtA genes

International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents, 2020
The emergence of linezolid-resistant Enterococcus spp. (LRE) due to transferable resistance determinants is a matter of concern. To understand the contribution of the plasmid-encoded optrA and poxtA genes to the emergence of LRE, clinical isolates from different Spanish hospitals submitted to the Spanish Reference Laboratory from 2015-2018 were ...
