Quinolone Resistance in Gallibacterium anatis Determined by Mutations in Quinolone Resistance-Determining Region. [PDF]

Antibiotics (Basel), 2023
Control of the important pathogen, Gallibacterium anatis, which causes salpingitis and peritonitis in poultry, relies on treatment using antimicrobial compounds. Among these, quinolones and fluoroquinolones have been used extensively, leading to a rise in the prevalence of resistant strains.

Quinolone resistance: much more than predicted [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2011
Since quinolones are synthetic antibiotics, it was predicted that mutations in target genes would be the only mechanism through which resistance could be acquired, because there will not be quinolone resistance genes in nature.

Genetic Detection of Quinolone Resistance in Haemophilus parainfluenzae: Mutations in the Quinolone Resistance-Determining Regions of gyrA and parC

Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, 2010
The quinolone resistance-determining regions of gyrA and parC of both quinolone-sensitive and quinolone-resistant Haemophilus parainfluenzae strains were amplified and sequenced.

Detection of S83V GyrA mutation in quinolone-resistant Shewanella algae using comparative genomics

Journal of Microbiology, Immunology and Infection, 2021
Background: Shewanella algae is a zoonotic pathogen that poses a serious health threat to immunocompromised hosts. Treatment of S. algae infections is challenging due to the pathogen's intrinsic resistance to a variety of β-lactam antibiotics ...

Emerging coexistence of three PMQR genes on a multiple resistance plasmid with a new surrounding genetic structure of qnrS2 in E. coli in China

Antimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control, 2020
Background Quinolones are commonly used for treatment of infections by bacteria of the Enterobacteriaceae family. However, the rising resistance to quinolones worldwide poses a major clinical and public health risk.

Mechanisms of drug resistance: quinolone resistance [PDF]

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2015
Quinolone antimicrobials are synthetic and widely used in clinical medicine. Resistance emerged with clinical use and became common in some bacterial pathogens. Mechanisms of resistance include two categories of mutation and acquisition of resistance‐conferring genes.
