Interplay of a non-conjugative integrative element and a conjugative plasmid in the spread of antibiotic resistance via suicidal plasmid transfer from an aquaculture Vibrio isolate.
The study identifies the plasmid pSEA1 and the integrative element Tn 6283, which carry various antibiotic resistance genes including tet(M), mef(C), mph(G), sul2, catII, and bla, facilitating the spread of antibiotic resistance in aquatic environments.
Azithromycin Resistance in Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli in France between 2004 and 2020 and Detection of mef(C)-mph(G) Genes.
The study identifies the mef(C)-mph(G) gene combination as a novel cause of azithromycin resistance in Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) in France, highlighting the need for monitoring and testing for resistance before therapeutic use.
The Integrative and Conjugative Element ICECspPOL2 Contributes to the Outbreak of Multi-Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria for Chryseobacterium Spp. and Elizabethkingia Spp.
The study identifies the integrative and conjugative element ICE Csp POL2 in the multi-antibiotic-resistant strain Chryseobacterium sp. POL2, which carries several antibiotic resistance genes including those conferring resistance to carbapenems, chloramphenicol, florfenicol, macrolides, tetracycline, and aminoglycosides. The element was found to transfer horizontally to Elizabethkingia species, contributing to the spread of multiple antibiotic resistance genes.
Highly Virulent and Multidrug-Resistant Escherichia coli Sequence Type 58 from a Sausage in Germany.

Macrolide Resistance and In Vitro Potentiation by Peptidomimetics in Porcine Clinical Escherichia coli.
The study identifies erm(B), mph(A), mph(B), and mef(C) as acquired macrolide resistance genes in porcine clinical E. coli, demonstrating their association with increased macrolide MICs and the potential of peptidomimetics to potentiate macrolide activity.
Genomic analysis of azithromycin-resistant Salmonella from food animals at slaughter and processing, and retail meats, 2011-2021, United States.
Persistence of Marine Bacterial Plasmid in the House Fly (Musca domestica): Marine-Derived Antimicrobial Resistance Genes Have a Chance of Invading the Human Environment.
The study shows that the marine bacterial plasmid pAQU1, carrying several antimicrobial resistance genes, can persist in the house fly intestine for up to 5 days, potentially facilitating the transmission of marine-derived antimicrobial resistance genes to the human environment.
Azithromycin resistance in Escherichia coli and Salmonella from food-producing animals and meat in Europe.
The study identified several macrolide resistance genes, including mph(A), mph(B), mef(B), erm(B), mef(C)-mph(G), erm(C), erm(42), ere(A), and msr(E)-mph(E), associated with azithromycin resistance in E. coli and Salmonella from food-producing animals and meat in Europe. The study also highlighted the importance of the mph(A) operon structure and its regulatory region in determining azithromycin resistance.
Molecular Characterization of Multidrug-Resistant Escherichia coli from Fecal Samples of Wild Animals.
The study identified multiple AMR genes in E. coli isolates from wild animals, including beta-lactamases (bla TEM-1B, bla CTX-M-65, bla CTX-M-55, bla EC-1982), aminoglycoside resistance genes (aac(3)-IIa, aadA2, aadA5, ant(3")-Ia, aph(3")-Ib, aph(3′)-Ia, aph(6)-Id), tetracycline resistance genes (tetB, tetA), trimethoprim resistance genes (dfrA17, dfrA1, dfrA5, dfrA12), sulfonamide resistance genes (sul1, sul2, sul3), macrolide/lincosamide/streptogramin resistance genes (mphB, lnuF, ermC, mefC), quinolone resistance genes (qnrB19, qnrB5, qnrS1, qnrS2), and others. Additionally, point mutations in gyrA, parC, and parE were associated with fluoroquinolone resistance.
