type 1 fimbriae adhesin
Overview
Comparison of adhesin genes and antimicrobial susceptibilities between uropathogenic and intestinal commensal Escherichia coli strains.
The study identified several adhesin genes (afa, papG, flu, yqi, yadN, ygiL, fimH) that were more prevalent in uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) compared to commensal strains. Additionally, bla CTX-M genes were found in 97% of ESBL-producing UPEC isolates.
Intermittent antibiotic treatment of bacterial biofilms favors the rapid evolution of resistance.
The study identifies mutations in sbmA, fusA, and fimH genes that contribute to amikacin resistance in biofilm-forming E. coli. These mutations were selected during intermittent amikacin treatment, highlighting the role of biofilm environments in accelerating resistance evolution.
Relationship between antimicrobial resistance and virulence factors in uropathogenic Escherichia coli isolates from Ramadi, Iraq: phenotype and genotype identification.
The study identified blaTEM, aac(3)-II, sul2, fimH, and hlyA as the most prevalent genes in UPEC isolates, with strong correlations between aac(3)-II and gentamicin resistance, sul2 and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole resistance, and fimH with antibiotic resistance.
Bacillus cereus-derived α-amylase disrupts biofilm formation and quorum sensing in multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae.
The study shows that B. cereus-derived α-amylase effectively disrupts biofilm formation and quorum sensing in multidrug-resistant K. pneumoniae, reducing biofilm thickness and inhibiting the expression of biofilm-associated genes fimH and mrkD.
