چکیده
The NDM-1 gene is a significant public health concern. Acinetobacter is one of the most prevalent opportunistic pathogens causing recent nosocomial infections with NDM-1, and drug-resistant strains pose serious threats to public health worldwide. Herein, we present the genomic sequence of Acinetobacter calcoaceticus subsp. anitratus XM1570, a multidrug-resistant isolate that carries the blaNDM-1 gene.

Detection of co-harboring OXA-58 and NDM-1carbapenemase producing genes resided on a same plasmid from an Acinetobacter pittii clinical isolate in China
Objective(s): Acinetobacter pittii has become an emerging opportunistic noscomial pathogen worldwide with multi-drug resistance. In the present study, an A. pittii strain was isolated from bronchoalveolar lavage fluid sample harboring both OXA-58 and NDM-1carbapenemase producing genes. The mechanisms of carbapenem resistance of the A. pittii strain was investigated.Materials and Methods: Carbap...
متن کاملDraft genome sequence of an Acinetobacter genomic species 3 strain harboring a bla(NDM-1) gene.
Here we report the draft genome sequence of one Acinetobacter genomic species 3 strain, D499, which harbors the bla(NDM-1) gene. The total length of the assembled genome is 4,103,824 bp, and 3,896 coding sequences (CDSs) were predicted within the genome. A previously unreported bla(NDM-1)-bearing plasmid was identified in this strain.

BACKGROUND We have recovered one bla(NDM-1)-harboring bacterial strain, designated as XM1570, from a sputum sample obtained from a fatal case of pneumonia in China. METHODS Biochemical profiling, 16S rRNA sequencing and antimicrobial susceptibility testing were performed. Conjugation experiments were conducted to determine transmissibility of resistance. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis and w...
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequence of Acinetobacter bereziniae HPC229, a Carbapenem-Resistant Clinical Strain from Argentina Harboring blaNDM-1
We report here the draft genome sequence of an NDM-1-producing Acinetobacter bereziniae clinical strain, HPC229. This strain harbors both plasmid and chromosomal resistance determinants toward different β-lactams and aminoglycosides as well as several types of multidrug efflux pumps, most likely representing an adaptation strategy for survival under different environments.

Acinetobacter baumannii is an aerobic, nonmotile Gram-negative bacterium that causes nosocomial infections worldwide. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of Acinetobacter baumannii strain ZW85-1 and its two plasmids. One of the plasmids carries genes for NDM-1, which can hydrolyze a wide range of antibiotics.
