Project description:An increase in the prevalence of commensal Escherichia coli carrying blaCTX-M genes among dairy cattle was observed between 2008 and 2012 in Washington State. To study the molecular epidemiology of this change, we selected 126 blaCTX-M-positive and 126 blaCTX-M-negative isolates for determinations of the multilocus sequence types (MLSTs) and antibiotic resistance phenotypes from E. coli obtained during a previous study. For 99 isolates, we also determined the blaCTX-M alleles using PCR and sequencing and identified the replicon types of blaCTX-M-carrying plasmids. The blaCTX-M-negative E. coli isolates comprised 76 sequence types (STs) compared with 32 STs in blaCTX-M-positive E. coli isolates. The blaCTX-M-positive E. coli isolates formed three MLST clonal complexes, accounting for 83% of these isolates; 52% of blaCTX-M-negative E. coli isolates clustered into 10 clonal complexes, and the remainder were singletons. Overall, blaCTX-M-negative E. coli isolates had more diverse genotypes that were distinct to farms, whereas blaCTX-M-positive E. coli isolates had a clonal population structure and were widely disseminated on farms in both regions included in the study. Plasmid replicon types included IncI1 which predominated, followed by IncFIB and IncFIA/FIB. blaCTX-M-15 was the predominant CTX-M gene allele, followed by blaCTX-M-27 and blaCTX-M-14 There was no significant association between plasmid replicon types and bacterial STs, and neither clonal complexes nor major plasmid groups were associated with two discrete dairy-farming regions of Washington State.IMPORTANCE Infections caused by extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli occur globally and present treatment challenges because of their resistance to multiple antimicrobial drugs. Cattle are potential reservoirs of ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae, and so understanding the causes of successful dissemination of blaCTX-M genes in commensal bacteria will inform future approaches for the prevention of antibiotic-resistant pathogen emergence.

Project description:We sequenced a novel conjugative multidrug resistance IncF plasmid, p42-2, isolated from Escherichia coli strain 42-2, previously identified in China. p42-2 is 106,886 bp long, composed of a typical IncFII-type backbone (?54 kb) and one distinct acquired DNA region spanning ?53 kb, harboring 12 antibiotic resistance genes [blaCTX-M-55, oqxA, oqxB, fosA3, floR, tetA(A), tetA(R), strA, strB, sul2, aph(3')-II, and ?blaTEM-1]. The spread of these multidrug resistance determinants on the same plasmid is of great concern and, because of coresistance to antibiotics from different classes, is therapeutically challenging.

Project description:Since initial identification in China, the widespread geographical occurrence of plasmid-mediated colistin resistance gene mcr-1 in Enterobacteriaceae has been of great concern. In this study, a total of 22 Salmonella enterica were resistant to colistin, while only five isolates which belonged to ST34 Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) were mcr-1 positive. Four of them shared nearly identical PFGE type, although they were from different host species and diverse geographical locations. All the mcr-1-positive S. Typhimurium exhibited multi-resistant phenotypes including ampicillin, streptomycin, gentamicin, florfenicol, nalidixic acid, tetracycline, trimethoprim-sulfamethox, in addition to colistin. The oqxAB and aac(6')-Ib-cr genes were present alone or in combination in four (80.0%) and five (100%) isolates, respectively. The mcr-1 gene was located on a transferable IncI2 plasmid in the four genetically related strains. In the other one strain, mcr-1 was located on an approximately 190 kb IncHI2 plasmid. In conclusion, we report five mcr-1-positive S. Typhimurium/ST34 isolates. Both clonal expansion and horizontal transmission of IncI2-type plasmids were involved in the spread of the mcr-1 gene in Salmonella enterica from food-producing animals in China. There is a great need to monitor the potential dissemination of the mcr-1 gene.

Project description:We report the complete nucleotide sequence of a plasmid, pA31-12, carrying blaCTX-M-55 and mcr-1 from a chicken Escherichia coli isolate. pA31-12 has an IncI2 replicon that displays extensive sequence similarity with pHN1122-1-borne blaCTX-M-55 and pHNSHP45-borne mcr-1 Insertion sequences ISEcp1 and ISApl1 are responsible for the mobilization of blaCTX-M-55 and mcr-1, respectively. The colocalization of mcr-1 with an extended-spectrum β-lactamase gene on a conjugative plasmid may accelerate the dissemination of both genes by coselection.

Project description:From January 2013 to December 2018, 90 Escherichia coli isolates were collected from 90 sick pigs on 58 farms in seven cities in Taiwan. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of the isolates to 14 antimicrobial agents were determined on the VITEK 2 system (bioMérieux, Marcy-l'Etoile, France), and the resistance to colistin was assessed via the reference broth microdilution (BMD) method. The mobilized colistin resistance genes (mcr) were determined for the colistin-resistant isolates, which displayed BMD MICs ? 4 mg/L. Genotypes of the mcr-positive E. coli isolates were determined by multilocus sequence typing, arbitrarily primed polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis. All of the isolates were tested for susceptibility to carbapenems. Fifty isolates (55.6%) were resistant to colistin, 39 of which (78%) were positive for the mcr-1 gene. E. coli isolates harboring mcr-1 were most frequent in 2017 (15/18, 83.3%), followed by 2018 (13/23, 56.5%), 2015 (7/21, 33.3%), and 2016 (3/24, 12.5%). A total of 18 sequence types (STs) were identified among the 39 porcine mcr-1-carrying E. coli isolates; 13 were ST2521 (33.3%) isolated in 2017 and 2018. Five genotypes (clones) were identified, and the same genotypes were in sick pigs on the same farm and different farms. This suggests intra- and inter-farm spread of porcine mcr-1-carrying E. coli. The results presented here indicate high colistin resistance and wide mcr-1 E. coli prevalence among the sick pigs sampled in 2015-2018 in different regions of Taiwan.

Project description:The purpose of this study was to investigate the occurrence of plasmid-mediated colistin resistance gene mcr-1 in Enterobacteriaceae isolates from companion animals in Guangzhou, China. Enterobacteriaceae isolated from 180 samples collected from cats and dogs were screened for mcr-1 by PCR and sequencing. MCR-1-producing isolates were further characterized by multilocus sequence typing and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). Plasmid characterization was performed by conjugation, replicon typing, S1-PFGE, and Southern blot hybridization. Plasmid pHN6DS2 as a representative IncN1-IncHI2/ST3 plasmid from ST93 E. coli was fully sequenced. pHN6DS2-like plasmids were screened by PCR-mapping and sequencing. The mcr-1 gene was detected in 6.25% (8/128) Escherichia coli isolates, of which, five belonged to E. coli ST93 and had identical PFGE patterns, resistance profiles and resistance genes. mcr-1 genes were located on ∼244.4 kb plasmids (n = 6), ∼70 kb plasmids, and ∼60 kb plasmids, respectively. Among them, five mcr-1-carrying plasmids were successfully transferred to recipient by conjugation experiments, and were classified as IncN1-IncHI2/ST3 (∼244.4 kb, n = 4, all obtained from E. coli ST93), and IncI2 (∼70 kb, n = 1), respectively. Plasmid pHN6DS2 contained a typical IncHI2-type backbone, with IncN1 segment (ΔrepA-Iterons I-gshB-ΔIS1294) inserted into the multiresistance region, and was similar to other mcr-1-carrying IncHI2/ST3 plasmids from Enterobacteriaceae isolates of various origins in China. The remaining five mcr-1-bearing plasmids with sizes of ∼244.4 kb were identified to be pHN6DS2-like plasmids. In conclusion, clonal spread of ST93 E. coli isolates was occurred in companion animals in Guangzhou, China.

Project description:To understand the underlying evolution process of F33:A-:B- plasmids among Enterobacteriaceae isolates of various origins in China, the complete sequences of 17 blaCTX-M-harboring F33:A-:B- plasmids obtained from Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates from different sources (animals, animal-derived food, and human clinics) in China were determined. F33:A-:B- plasmids shared similar plasmid backbones comprising replication, leading, and conjugative transfer regions and differed by the numbers of repeats in yddA and traD and by the presence of group II intron, except that pHNAH9 lacked a large segment of the leading and transfer regions. The variable regions of F33:A-B- plasmids were distinct and were inserted downstream of the addiction system pemI/pemK, identified as the integration hot spot among F33:A-B- plasmids. The variable region contained resistance genes and mobile elements or contained segments from other types of plasmids, such as IncI1, IncN1, and IncX1. Three plasmids encoding CTX-M-65 were very similar to our previously described pHN7A8 plasmid. Four CTX-M-55-producing plasmids contained multidrug resistance regions related to that of F2:A-B- plasmid pHK23a from Hong Kong. Five plasmids with IncN and/or IncX replication regions and IncI1-backbone fragments had variable regions related to those of pE80 and p42-2. The remaining five plasmids with IncN replicons and an IncI1 segment also possessed closely related variable regions. The diversity in variable regions was presumably associated with rearrangements, insertions, and/or deletions mediated by mobile elements, such as IS26 and IS1294IMPORTANCE Worldwide spread of antibiotic resistance genes among Enterobacteriaceae isolates is of great concern. F33:A-:B- plasmids are important vectors of resistance genes, such as blaCTX-M-55/-65, blaNDM-1, fosA3, and rmtB, among E. coli isolates from various sources in China. We determined and compared the complete sequences of 17 F33:A-:B- plasmids from various sources. These plasmids appear to have evolved from the same ancestor by mobile element-mediated rearrangement, acquisition, and/or loss of resistance modules and similar IncN1, IncI1, and/or IncX1 plasmid backbone segments. Our findings highlight the evolutionary potential of F33:A-:B- plasmids as efficient vectors to capture and diffuse clinically relevant resistance genes.
