Plasmid-borne florfenicol resistance in Pasteurella multocida.
OBJECTIVES A florfenicol-resistant Pasteurella multocida isolate from a calf was investigated for the genetic basis of florfenicol resistance and the location of the resistance gene. METHODS The P. multocida isolate 381 was investigated for its in vitro susceptibility to antimicrobial agents and its plasmid content. A 10.8 kb florfenicol-chloramphenicol resistance plasmid, designated pCCK381,...
متن کاملNew plasmid-borne antibiotic resistance gene cluster in Pasteurella multocida.
A new antibiotic resistance gene cluster comprising genes for sulfonamide (sul2), streptomycin (strA-strB), and tetracycline [tetR-tet(H)] resistance was detected on plasmid pVM111 from Pasteurella multocida. The tetR-tet(H) gene region was inserted between sul2 and strA, possibly by illegitimate recombination. Two potential recombination sites of 18 and 25 bp were identified.
متن کاملColloidal clay inhibits conjugal transfer of R-plasmid R1drd-19 in Escherichia coli.
Colloidal clay (montmorillonite) strongly inhibited the conjugal transfer of R-plasmid R1drd-19 in Escherichia coli. This finding is discussed in the context of the feasibility of plasmid transfer in environmental waters.
متن کاملPasteurella multocida Bacteremia in an Immunocompromised Patient
We present the case of a 61-year-old Caucasian gentleman who presented with a one-day history of fever, chills, and altered mental status. His symptoms were initially thought to be secondary to cellulitis. Blood cultures grew Pasteurella multocida, a rare pathogen to cause bacteremia. Our patient was treated with ciprofloxacin for two weeks and made a complete and uneventful recovery. Our patie...
متن کاملPathogenomics of Pasteurella multocida.
The first complete genome sequence of the P. multocida avian isolate Pm70 was reported in 2001. Analysis of the genome identified many predicted virulence genes, including two encoding homologues of the Bordetella pertussis filamentous haemagluttinins, and genes involved in iron transport and metabolism. Availability of the genome sequence allowed for a range of whole-genome trans...
