Detection of plasmid-mediated qnr genes among the quinolone-resistant Escherichia coli isolates in Iran.
INTRODUCTION Plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance, which complicates treatment, has been increasingly identified in Escherichia coli isolates worldwide. The purpose of this study was to identify the plasmid-mediated qnrA and qnrB genes among the quinolone-resistant Escherichia coli isolated from urinary tract infections in Iran. METHODOLOGY A total of 140 Escherichia coli isolates were colle...
متن کاملPlasmid-mediated quinolone resistance in clinical isolates of Escherichia coli from Shanghai, China.
Although quinolone resistance usually results from chromosomal mutations, recent studies indicate that quinolone resistance can also be plasmid mediated. The gene responsible, qnr, is distinct from the known quinolone resistance genes and in previous studies seemed to be restricted to Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli isolates from the University of Alabama in Birmingham, where this re...
متن کاملDetection of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance genes in clinical isolates of Enterobacter spp. in Spain.
We have studied by PCR and DNA sequencing the presence of the qnrA, qnrB, qnrS, aac(6')-Ib-cr, qepA, intI1, and ISCR1 genes in 200 clinical isolates of Enterobacter cloacae (n = 153) and E. aerogenes (n = 47) consecutively collected between January 2004 and October 2005 in two hospitals located in Santander (northern Spain) and Seville (southern Spain). Mutations in the quinolone resistance-det...
متن کاملmultiplex pcr study of plasmid-mediated ampc beta-lactamase genes in clinical isolates of escherichia coli
background : ampc β-lactamases are important cephalosporinases chromosomally encoded in many of enterobacteriaceae and a few other organisms where they mediate resistance to cephalothin, cefazolin, cefoxitin and penicillins. the six different families of plasmid-mediated ampc β-lactamases have been described, but no phenotypic test can discriminate among them. ampc multiplex pcr has been succ...
متن کاملEmergence of the plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance gene qnrS1 in Escherichia coli isolates in Greece.
Three major groups of the plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (Qnr) determinants have been identified so far in Enterobacteriaceae: the QnrA group, which includes 6 variants, the QnrB group, which includes 19 variants, and the QnrS group, which includes 3 variants (5). Although Qnr proteins produce only low-level resistance, they provide a favorable background for higher resistance to occur a...
