The β-Lactamase Gene Profile and a Plasmid-Carrying Multiple Heavy Metal Resistance Genes of Enterobacter cloacae.

ABSTRACT: In this work, by high-throughput sequencing, antibiotic resistance genes, including class A (bla _CTX-M, bla _Z, bla _TEM, bla _VEB, bla _KLUC, and bla _SFO), class C (bla _SHV, bla _DHA, bla _MIR, bla _AZECL-29, and bla _ACT), and class D (bla _OXA) β-lactamase genes, were identified among the pooled genomic DNA from 212 clinical Enterobacter cloacae isolates. Six bla _MIR-positive E. cloacae strains were identified, and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) showed that these strains were not clonally related. The complete genome of the bla <
