Characterization of plasmid pAX22, encoding VIM-1 metallo-β-lactamase, reveals a new putative mechanism of In70 integron mobilization.
OBJECTIVES VIM-type enzymes are among the most widespread acquired metallo-β-lactamases among Gram-negative pathogens. Integron In70 is a class 1 integron that has emerged as a successful genetic support for blaVIM-1 (one of the most prevalent blaVIM allelic variants) in Gram-negative non-fermenters, and is usually chromosome borne. The objective of this study was to characterize plasmid pAX22 ...
متن کاملIdentification and Characterization of Metallo-β-Lactamases Producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa Clinical Isolates in University Hospital from Zanjan Province, Iran
Background: Infectious by Pseudomonas aeruginosa has spread worldwide and metallo-beta-lactamases (MBL) are being reported with increasing frequency. The aim of this study was to investigate the antibiotic susceptibility and distribution of blaVIM and blaIMP genes in P. aeruginosa isolates from Zanjan Province of Iran. Methods: A total of 70 P. aeruginosa isolates were identified from patients ...
متن کاملAssociation Between Metallo-β-lactamases and Integrons with Multi-Drug Resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa Isolates
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is among the most important pathogens in the nosocomial infections. A genetic mobile element, the integron, is one of the major agents involved in dissemination of multi-drug resistance among gram negative bacteria. During a descriptive study from October 2009 to August 2010, some 130 P. aeruginosa clinical isolates were collected from different wards of three hospitals...
متن کاملTitle : Isolation of VIM - 2 - producing Pseudomonas monteilii clinical strains Disseminated 1 in a Tertiary Hospital in Northern Spain
23 We describe the occurrence of blaVIM-2 in 10 carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas monteilii 24 strains isolated from different clinical samples in our hospital in Northern Spain. All the 25 blaVIM-2-harbouring P. monteilii isolates possessed a class 1 integron, with the cassette array 26 [intI1_blaVIM-2_aac(6’)-Ib_qacE1_sul1]. Our results show the emergence of VIM-227 producing multidrug-resist...
متن کاملIsolation of an integron-borne blaVIM-4 type metallo-beta-lactamase gene from a carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa clinical isolate in Hungary.
The first integron-borne metallo-beta-lactamase gene was isolated in Hungary. The bla(VIM-4) gene is located on a class 1 integron that also carries a novel bla(OXA)-like gene. The integron is harbored by a serotype O12 Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain and shows high structural similarity to integrons isolated in Greece and Poland.
