Molecular epidemiology of beta-lactamase-specifying plasmids of Haemophilus ducreyi.
We have studied the genetic basis of beta-lactamase production in eight strains of Haemophilus ducreyi isolated in diverse areas of the world. Beta-lactamase production in all strains was mediated by plasmids having a molecular mass of either 5.7 or 7.0 megadaltons. Plasmids of 5.7 megadaltons were shown to carry the entire sequence of pFA7, the beta-lactamase specifying plasmid found in isolat...
متن کاملA novel extended-spectrum TEM-type beta-lactamase, TEM-138, from Salmonella enterica serovar Infantis.
A novel natural TEM beta-lactamase with extended-spectrum activity, TEM-138, was identified in a ceftazidime-resistant clinical isolate of Salmonella enterica serovar Infantis. Compared to TEM-1, TEM-138 contains the following mutations: E104K, N175I, and G238S. The bla(TEM-138) gene was located on a 50-kb transferable plasmid. Expression studies with Escherichia coli revealed efficient ceftazi...
متن کاملTEM-121, a novel complex mutant of TEM-type beta-lactamase from Enterobacter aerogenes.
Enterobacter aerogenes clinical isolate LOR was resistant to penicillins and ceftazidime but susceptible to cefuroxime, cephalothin, cefoxitin, cefotaxime, ceftriaxone, and cefepime. PCR and cloning experiments from this strain identified a novel TEM-type beta-lactamase (TEM-121) differing by five amino acid substitutions from beta-lactamase TEM-2 (Glu104Lys, Arg164Ser, Ala237Thr, Glu240Lys, an...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Effects of Iron Oxide Nanoparticles on Expression of TEM Type Beta-Lactamase Genes in Pseudomonas Aeruginosa
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a common cause of surgical-site infections and healthcare-associated infections in the bloodstream, and urinary tract. Iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) have shown, to possess antibacterial features. The nanoparticles' status as emerging therapeutic elements has motivated investigators to assess the effects of iron nanoparticles on the expression of TEM type be...
متن کاملBiology of Haemophilus ducreyi.
The etiological agent of the sexually transmitted genital ulcer disease chancroid was first described in 1889 by Auguste Ducrey following repeated autoinoculation of purulent ulcer material from a series of patients. The organism was isolated on artificial media a decade later but has remained difficult to isolate consistently, resulting in controversy over its characteristics and role as the c...
