Genome Sequence of Carbapenemase-Producing Enterobacter cloacae 0102-4P-1 Harboring the IncC-Type Plasmid with a Multidrug Resistance Site Encoding bla_NDM-1, Isolated from Commercially Imported Shrimp.

ABSTRACT: A carbapenem-resistant Enterobacter cloacae 0102-4P-1 strain was isolated from commercially imported shrimp in Japan. Here, we present a draft genome sequence. The complete plasmid sequence was also determined by hybrid assembly sequencing using Oxford Nanopore and Illumina methods. The assembled whole genome and plasmid were 5,164,033 bp and 162,852 bp long, respectively.

Project description:IncX3 and IncL plasmids have been named as catalysts advancing dissemination of blaOXA-181 and blaOXA-48 genes. However, their impact on the performance of host cells is vastly understudied. Genetic characteristics of blaOXA-48- and blaOXA-181-containing Klebsiella pneumoniae (EFN299), Klebsiella quasipneumoniae (EFN262), and Enterobacter cloacae (EFN743) isolated from clinical samples in a Ghanaian hospital were investigated by whole-genome sequencing. Transfer of plasmids by conjugation and electroporation, plasmid stability, fitness cost, and genetic context of blaOXA-48, blaOXA-181, and blaDHA-1 were assessed. blaOXA-181 was carried on two IncX3 plasmids, an intact 51.5-kb IncX3 plasmid (p262-OXA-181) and a 45.3-kb IncX3 plasmid (p743-OXA-181) without replication protein sequence. The fluoroquinolone-resistant gene qnrS1 region was also excised, and unlike in p262-OXA-181, the blaOXA-181 drug-resistant region was not found on a composite transposon. blaOXA-48 was carried on a 74.6-kb conjugative IncL plasmid with unknown ~10.9-kb sequence insertion. This IncL plasmid proved to be highly transferable, with a conjugation efficiency of 1.8 × 10-2. blaDHA-1 was present on an untypeable 22.2 kb genetic structure. Plasmid stability test revealed plasmid loss rate between 4.3% and 12.4%. The results also demonstrated that carriage of IncX3-blaOXA-181 or IncL-blaOXA-48 plasmids was not associated with any fitness defect, but rather an enhanced competitive ability of host cells. This study underscores the significant contribution of IncX3 and IncL plasmids in the dissemination of resistance genes and their efficient transfer calls for regular monitoring to control the expansion of resistant strains. IMPORTANCE The growing rate of antibiotic resistance is an important global health threat. This threat is exacerbated by the lack of safe and potent alternatives to carbapenems in addition to the slow developmental process of newer and effective antibiotics. Infections by carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria are becoming almost untreatable, leading to poor clinical outcomes and high mortality rates. OXA-48-like carbapenemases are one of the most widespread carbapenemases accounting for resistance among Enterobacteriaecae. We characterized OXA-48- and OXA-181-producing Enterobacteriaecae to gain insights into the genetic basis and mechanism of resistance to carbapenems. Findings from the study showed that the genes encoding these enzymes were carried on highly transmissible plasmids, one of which had sequences absent in other similar plasmids. This implies that mobile genetic elements are important players in the dissemination of resistance genes. Further characterization of this plasmid is warranted to determine the role of this sequence in the spread of resistance genes.

Project description:Dissemination of blaNDM, which is carried on the IncX3 plasmid, among Enterobacterales has been reported worldwide. In particular, blaNDM-5-carrying IncX3 plasmids can spread among several hosts, facilitating their dissemination. Other variants, such as blaNDM-17-, blaNDM-19-, blaNDM-20-, blaNDM-21-, and blaNDM-33-carrying IncX3 plasmids, have also been reported. Here, we characterized, using whole-genome sequencing (WGS), a blaNDM-16b-carrying IncX3 plasmid harbored by Escherichia coli strain TA8571, which was isolated from a urine specimen of a hospital inpatient in Tokyo, Japan. The blaNDM-16b differed in sequence from blaNDM-5 (C > T at site 698, resulting in an Ala233Val substitution). This blaNDM-16b-carrying IncX3 plasmid (pTMTA8571-1) is 46,161 bp in length and transferred via conjugation. Transconjugants showed high resistance to β-lactam antimicrobials (except for aztreonam). Because pTMTA8571-1, which carries the Tn125-related region containing blaNDM and conjugative transfer genes, was similar to the previously reported IncX3 plasmids, we performed phylogenetic analysis based on the sequence of 34 shared genes in 142 blaNDM-carrying IncX3 plasmids (22,846/46,923 bp). Comparative analysis of the shared genes revealed short branches on the phylogenetic tree (average of 1.08 nucleotide substitutions per shared genes), but each blaNDM variant was divided into separate groups, and the structure of the tree correlated with the flowchart of blaNDM nucleotide substitutions. The blaNDM-carrying IncX3 plasmids may thereby have evolved from the same ancestral plasmid with subsequent mutation of the blaNDM. Therefore, pTMTA8571-1 likely emerged from a blaNDM-5-carrying IncX3 plasmid. This study suggested that the spread of blaNDM-carrying IncX3 plasmids may be a hotbed for the emergence of novel variants of blaNDM. IMPORTANCE blaNDM-carrying IncX3 plasmids have been reported worldwide. Harbored blaNDM variants were mainly blaNDM-5, but there were also rare variants like blaNDM-17, blaNDM-19, blaNDM-20, blaNDM-21, and blaNDM-33, including blaNDM-16b detected in this study. For these plasmids, previous reports analyzed whole genomes or parts of sequences among a small number of samples, whereas, in this study, we performed an analysis of 142 blaNDM-carrying IncX3 plasmids detected around the world. The results showed that regardless of the blaNDM variants, blaNDM-carrying IncX3 plasmids harbored highly similar shared genes. Because these plasmids already spread worldwide may be a hotbed for the emergence of rare or novel variants of blaNDM, increased attention should be paid to blaNDM-carrying IncX3 plasmids in the future.
