Characterization of mcr-5-Harboring Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica Serovar Typhimurium Isolates from Animal and Food Origin in Germany.


ABSTRACT: We characterized eight mcr-5-positive Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Typhimurium sequence type 34 (ST34) isolates obtained from pigs and meat in Germany. Five plasmid types were identified harboring mcr-5 on Tn6452 or putative mobile insertion cassettes. The mobility of mcr-5 was confirmed by integration of Tn6452 into the bacterial chromosomes of two strains and the detection of conjugative mcr-5 plasmids. The association with mobile genetic elements might further enhance mcr-5 distribution.
