Linezolid- and Multidrug-Resistant Enterococci in Raw Commercial Dog Food, Europe, 2019–2020
We describe enterococci in raw-frozen dog food commercialized in Europe as a source of genes encoding resistance to the antibiotic drug linezolid and of strains and plasmids enriched in antibiotic-resistance and virulence genes in hospitalized patients ...

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

Linezolid-resistant (Tn6246::fexB-poxtA) Enterococcus faecium strains colonizing humans and bovines on different continents: similarity without epidemiological link [PDF]
Abstract Objectives poxtA is the most recently described gene conferring acquired resistance to linezolid, a relevant antibiotic for treating enterococcal infections. We retrospectively screened for poxtA in diverse enterococci and aimed to characterize its genetic/genomic contexts.

Rapid reconstruction of multidrug‐resistant bacterial genomes using CycloneSEQ nanopore sequencing
Multidrug‐resistant (MDR) bacteria commonly harbor highly complex genomes enriched with mobile elements and resistance islands, which are challenging to resolve using short‐read sequencing. Here, we evaluated CycloneSEQ, a newly developed Chinese nanopore sequencing platform, for MDR genome reconstruction.

Background Campylobacter jejuni, a major foodborne and zoonotic pathogen linked to poultry, is showing rising resistance to last‐resort antimicrobials like oxazolidinones and phenicols. Such resistance threatens both animal and human health. Its ability to acquire genes from gram‐positive bacteria highlights the need for surveillance in avian ...
