First detection of a carbapenem-hydrolyzing metalloenzyme in an Enterobacteriaceae isolate in France.
Although many -lactamases with expanded spectra have been described for the Enterobacteriaceae, carbapenemases remain infrequent. Acquired carbapenemases of the metalloenzyme group (Ambler class B) are mostly either of the IMP or the VIM type. The VIM enzymes were reported first from Verona in Italy (VIM-1) and are scattered now in southern Europe, South America, and Southeast Asia (6). Our gro...

متن کاملPlasmid-mediated carbapenem-hydrolyzing beta-lactamase KPC in a Klebsiella pneumoniae isolate from France.
Carbapenem-hydrolyzing -lactamases can be metallolactamases (7), expanded-spectrum oxacillinases (8), or Ambler class A enzymes (1, 2, 4, 6, 9–12). The class A KPC -lactamases hydrolyze all -lactams except for cephamycins and have been rarely reported in studies of enterobacterial species (Klebsiella pneumoniae, Klebsiella oxytoca, Salmonella enterica, Enterobacter sp.) found in New England and...
متن کاملCharacterization of the carbapenem-hydrolyzing oxacillinase oxa-58 in an Acinetobacter genospecies 3 clinical isolate.
Based on imipenem resistance in an Acinetobacter genospecies 3 clinical isolate, we were able to identify, for the first time in this genomic species, a plasmid-encoded bla(OXA-58) gene that was 100% homologous to the same gene in Acinetobacter baumannii.
متن کاملCharacterization of VIM-2, a carbapenem-hydrolyzing metallo-beta-lactamase and its plasmid- and integron-borne gene from a Pseudomonas aeruginosa clinical isolate in France.
Pseudomonas aeruginosa COL-1 was identified in a blood culture of a 39-year-old-woman treated with imipenem in Marseilles, France, in 1996. This strain was resistant to beta-lactams, including ureidopenicillins, ticarcillin-clavulanic acid, cefepime, ceftazidime, imipenem, and meropenem, but remained susceptible to the monobactam aztreonam. The carbapenem-hydrolyzing beta-lactamase gene of P. a...
