aminoglycoside-(3)-N-acetyltransferase III
Overview
Nucleotide sequence of the aacC3 gene, a gentamicin resistance determinant encoding aminoglycoside-(3)-N-acetyltransferase III expressed in Pseudomonas aeruginosa but not in Escherichia coli.
The aacC3 gene was identified as a gentamicin resistance determinant encoding aminoglycoside-(3)-N-acetyltransferase III, which was active in Pseudomonas aeruginosa but not in Escherichia coli.
Genetic characterization of three qnrS1-harbouring multidrug-resistance plasmids and qnrS1-containing transposons circulating in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
The study characterizes three qnrS1-harbouring multidrug-resistance plasmids and identifies qnrS1-containing transposons circulating in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. It reveals that qnrS1 is part of a transposon structure that includes additional resistance genes such as blaLAP-2, aacC3, sulII, tetR, tetA, and blaCTX-M-14.
Bacterial diversity and the antimicrobial resistome in the southwestern highlands of Saudi Arabia.
The study identified 102 antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) in the soil microbiota of the southwestern highlands of Saudi Arabia, primarily associated with multidrug resistance, macrolide, tetracycline, glycopeptide, bacitracin, and beta-lactam antibiotic resistance. qPCR confirmed the detection of 18 clinically important ARGs.
Global emergence of Acinetobacter baumannii International Clone 12 predominantly found in the Middle East.
The study identifies multiple acquired antimicrobial resistance genes in Acinetobacter baumannii International Clone 12, including bla OXA-23, bla GES-11, bla GES-12, bla GES-22, bla GES-35, bla CARB-16, bla CARB-49, aphA6a, aadB, strA, strB, cmlA1, aadA2b, sul1, drfA7, dfrA1, qacE, tet(B), tet(X3), msr(E), mph(E), bla TEM-1B, and aacC3. These genes contribute to resistance against various antibiotics, highlighting the complexity of resistance mechanisms in this clone.
Expression of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa gentamicin resistance gene aacC3 in Escherichia coli.
The study demonstrates that the aacC3 gene from Pseudomonas aeruginosa can be expressed in Escherichia coli, leading to gentamicin resistance. The expression level and resistance phenotype depend on the stability of the intercistronic hairpin structure and the presence of a strong promoter.
