Description of IMP-31, a novel metallo-β-lactamase found in an ST235 Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain in Western Germany.
OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to characterize a novel IMP-type metallo-β-lactamase (MBL) found in an MDR clinical isolate of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. METHODS The P. aeruginosa isolate NRZ-00156 was recovered from an inguinal swab from a patient hospitalized in Western Germany and showed high MICs of carbapenems. MBL production was analysed by Etest for MBLs, an EDTA combined disc ...
متن کاملVIM- and IMP-Type Metallo-β-lactamase–Producing Pseudomonas spp. and Acinetobacter spp. in Korean Hospitals
We determined the occurrence of acquired metallo-b-lactamase (MBL)-producing bacteria in Korean hospitals. Among the isolates nonsusceptible to imipenem that were collected from 28 hospitals from 2000 to 2001, 44 (11.4%) of 387 Pseudomonas spp. and 38 (14.2%) of 267 Acinetobacter spp. produced MBL and had alleles of blaVIM-2 or blaIMP-1. MBL-producing isolates were detected in 60.7% of the hosp...
متن کاملStructural and kinetic studies on metallo-β-lactamase IMP-1.
In an effort to probe for metal binding to metallo-β-lactamase (MβL) IMP-1, the enzyme was overexpressed, purified, and characterized. The resulting enzyme was shown to bind 2 equiv of Zn(II), exhibit significant catalytic activity, and yield EXAFS results similar to crystallographic data previously reported. Rapid kinetic studies showed that IMP-1 does not stabilize a nitrocefin-derived reacti...
متن کاملNosocomial outbreak caused by multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa producing IMP-13 metallo-beta-lactamase.
An outbreak of Pseudomonas aeruginosa showing a multidrug-resistant (MDR) phenotype (including carbapenems, ceftazidime, cefepime, gentamicin, tobramycin, and fluoroquinolones) was observed, during a 5-month period, in a general intensive care unit of a large tertiary care and clinical research hospital in southern Italy. The outbreak involved 15 patients, with a total of 87 isolates, mostly fr...
متن کاملA novel metallo-β-lactamase, IMP-34, in Klebsiella isolates with decreased resistance to imipenem.
We investigated 5 metallo-β-lactamase (MBL)-positive Klebsiella isolates from Japan showing intermediate resistance to imipenem. Sequencing of the MBL gene identified a novel variant of IMP-1 with a single amino acid substitution, Glu87Gly. This variant is designated as IMP-34 where blaIMP-34 is located on a transmissible plasmid.
