Acquisition of genomic elements were pivotal for the success of Escherichia coli ST410.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Escherichia coli ST410 is an emerging MDR clone linked to blaCTX-M-15 and blaOXA-181. Limited comprehensive data about the global distribution of ST410 clades and mobile genetic elements associated with different β-lactamases are available.

Methods

Short- and long-read WGS were performed on a collection of ST410 producing carbapenemases (n = 45) obtained from 11 countries. The evolutionary history of global E. coli ST410 was also investigated.

Results

OXA-181 and NDM-5 were the most frequent carbapenemases and used different underlying strategies to ensure their successful association with ST410 clades. Our phylogenetic analysis of publicly available ST410 genomes amended the previously published ST410 B subclades: ST410-B1 is identical to B1/H24, ST410-B2
