Detection of VIM- and IMP-type Metallo-Beta-Lactamase Genes in Acinetobacter baumannii Isolates from Patients in Two Hospitals in Tehran
Background: Acinetobacter baumannii, is an opportunistic pathogen and is responsible for numerous nosocomial infections. In recent years, this microorganism has been resistant to a wide range of antibiotics. One of the most important mechanisms of resistance in this microorganism is production of metallo-beta-lactamases (MBLs). Objectives: The aim of this study was to detect VIM- and IMP-type ...
متن کاملMolecular characterization of SPM-1, a novel metallo-beta-lactamase isolated in Latin America: report from the SENTRY antimicrobial surveillance programme.
The gene encoding the metallo-beta-lactamase SPM-1 was cloned from a genomic library of Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain 48-1997 A. The insert carrying spm-1 possessed a GC content of 47%, indicating that it is of non-Pseudomonas origin. Upstream of spm-1 there is a small open reading frame (ORF), which is homologous to the LysR family of proteins (69% identity to the LysR protein from Salmonella ...

متن کاملCombined Support-Vector-Machine-Based Virtual Screening and Docking Method for the Discovery of IMP-1 Metallo-β-Lactamase Inhibitors
Metallo-β-lactamases can hydrolyze a broad range of β-lactam antibiotics and no effective inhibitors could be used in the clinic. Therefore, the discovery of metallo-β-lactamase inhibitors has attracted much attention in recent years. In this study, a support vector machine (SVM) that separates compounds into positives and negatives, combined with docking method was employed for virtual screeni...

This study shows for the first time the mechanism of carbapenem resistance of a Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolate TJ8 recovered from Tianjin Medical University General Hospital ,China. The modified Hodge test and EDTA synergy test were performed for the screening of carbapenemases and metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs), respectively. Polymerase chain reactions and DNA sequencing confirmed that th...
