R391: a conjugative integrating mosaic comprised of phage, plasmid, and transposon elements.
R391 is a conjugative integrating mosaic element that carries antibiotic and mercury resistance traits. It includes a kanamycin resistance gene (aph) and a mercury resistance operon (merT, merP, merC, merA).
A novel transposon, Tn6009, composed of a Tn916 element linked with a Staphylococcus aureus mer operon.
The study identifies a novel transposon, Tn6009, which contains the tet(M) gene linked to the Staphylococcus aureus mer operon, conferring resistance to tetracycline and mercury.
Insight into the mobilome of Aeromonas strains.
The study characterizes various antibiotic resistance genes (ARG) in Aeromonas strains, highlighting the presence of beta-lactamases, aminoglycoside-modifying enzymes, tetracycline resistance genes, and others. These genes are often located on plasmids and contribute to multidrug resistance.
Study of pandrug and heavy metal resistance among E. coli from anthropogenically influenced Delhi stretch of river Yamuna.
The study identifies two variants of the blaTEM gene (blaTEM-1 and blaTEM-116) and mer operon genes (merB, merP, and merT) in the pandrug-resistant E. coli isolate MRC11, which contribute to resistance against beta-lactam antibiotics and mercury.
Bacterial isolates harboring antibiotics and heavy-metal resistance genes co-existing with mobile genetic elements in natural aquatic water bodies.
The study identified blaTEM, AmpC, qnrS, merB, merP, merT, silE, silP, silS, arsC, IntI, SulI, ISecp1, TN3, and TN21 as significant AMR genes in bacterial isolates from Dal and Wular Lakes in Kashmir, India. These genes were found to confer resistance to various antibiotics and heavy metals, highlighting the co-existence of antibiotic and metal resistance determinants in aquatic environments.
Colonization of a hand washing sink in a veterinary hospital by an Enterobacter hormaechei strain carrying multiple resistances to high importance antimicrobials.
The study identified multiple antimicrobial resistance genes in an Enterobacter hormaechei strain isolated from a veterinary hospital sink, including blaSHV-12, qnrB2, and mcr-9.1, which confer resistance to cephalosporins, quinolones, and colistin, respectively.
Plasmid-Mediated Ampicillin, Quinolone, and Heavy Metal Co-Resistance among ESBL-Producing Isolates from the Yamuna River, New Delhi, India.
The study identified plasmid-mediated resistance genes bla CMY-2, bla CMY-42, qnrS, merB, merP, merT, and arsC in ESBL-producing isolates from the Yamuna River, indicating co-resistance to antibiotics and heavy metals.
Comprehensive Analysis of Antimicrobial, Heavy Metal, and Pesticide Residues in Commercial Organic Fertilizers and Their Correlation with Tigecycline-Resistant tet (X)-Variant Genes.
The study identifies the presence of tigecycline-resistant tet(X)-variant genes in commercial organic fertilizers and highlights the correlation between heavy metal contamination and the relative abundance of these genes, suggesting that heavy metals may contribute to the spread of these resistance genes.
Isolation and characterization of multidrug resistant Gallibacterium anatis biovar haemolytica strains from Polish geese and hens.
The study identified 25 different antimicrobial resistance genes in multidrug-resistant Gallibacterium anatis biovar haemolytica strains from Polish geese and hens, including tetB, blaTEM-1, blaROB-1, floR, sul2, sul3, dfrK, aadA1, aadA2, aph(3)-la, aph(3)-lb, aph(6)-ld, sat2, dfrA14, dfrA32, merC, merP, merR, merT, qacL, and cmlA1.
Genomic profiling of pan-drug resistant proteus mirabilis Isolates reveals antimicrobial resistance and virulence gene landscape.
The study identified multiple antimicrobial resistance genes in pan-drug resistant Proteus mirabilis isolates, including genes conferring resistance to aminoglycosides, beta-lactams, tetracyclines, sulfonamides, and others. These genes were found on the chromosome and contributed to the isolates' resistance to various antibiotic classes.
Comprehensive Genomic Analysis of Uropathogenic E. coli: Virulence Factors, Antimicrobial Resistance, and Mobile Genetic Elements.
The study identified numerous antimicrobial resistance genes and mutations in uropathogenic E. coli isolates, including beta-lactamases, aminoglycoside modifying enzymes, tetracycline resistance genes, and quinolone resistance genes. Mutations in gyrA, parC, parE, and marR were associated with fluoroquinolone resistance, while mutations in PmrB, CyaA, GlpT, PtsI, and UhpT were linked to fosfomycin resistance.
Antisense transcription is associated with expression of metal resistance determinants in Cupriavidus metallidurans CH34.
The study identifies several metal resistance genes in Cupriavidus metallidurans CH34, including merA, merT, arsC2, arsC1, arsB, arsR, czcC2, tauD, atoD, czcC, copF, copD, copC, copB, copA, copR, copS, cupR, cupA, cupC, silC, silB, silA, gshA, and gshB, which are up-regulated under metal stress conditions and are associated with antisense transcription activities.
Wastewater based genomic surveillance key to population level monitoring of AmpC/ESBL producing Escherichia coli.
The study identified various AMR genes and mutations in AmpC/ESBL-producing E. coli from wastewater samples in Finland, highlighting the prevalence of blaCTX-M-15, blaCTX-M-27, and other resistance determinants.
