Association between mutations in gyrA and parC genes of Acinetobacter baumannii clinical isolates and ciprofloxacin resistance
Objective(s): We investigated the contribution of gyrA and parC mutational mechanism in decreased ciprofloxacin susceptibility of Acinetobacter baumannii isolated from burn wound infections. Materials and Methods: Ciprofloxacin susceptibility of 50 A. baumannii isolates was evaluated by disk diffusion and agar dilution methods. PCR and sequencing were performed for detection of mutation in gyr...
متن کاملThe Association Between Genetic Variants in Extended Spectrum Beta-Lactamases and AmpC-producing Gram-Negative Bacilli and Antibiotic Resistance
Background and Objective: A large group of genes associated with extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL) and AmpC expression is involved in inducing antibiotic resistance in various bacteria. Identifying these genes and assessing their harboring will be crucial in determining the pattern of antibiotic resistance. This study aimed to characterize genetic variants in extended-spectrum beta-lacta...
متن کاملAntibiotic resistance profiles of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates containing virulence genes
Background: A most common opportunistic pathogen, Pseudomonas aeruginosa is present in both humans and animals and responsible for various nosocomial infections and healthcare settings related infections. Different virulence genes like; oprL (membrane lipoprotein L) and toxA (exotoxin A i.e. ETA) in P. aeruginosa, assist in its pathogenicity, toxicity and contribute to high antibiotic resistanc...
متن کاملARDB—Antibiotic Resistance Genes Database
The treatment of infections is increasingly compromised by the ability of bacteria to develop resistance to antibiotics through mutations or through the acquisition of resistance genes. Antibiotic resistance genes also have the potential to be used for bio-terror purposes through genetically modified organisms. In order to facilitate the identification and characterization of these genes, we ha...
متن کاملComparative genomics of IncL/M-type plasmids: evolution by acquisition of resistance genes and insertion sequences.
IncL/M-type plasmids R446b and R471a were originally isolated from Morganella morganii (formerly Proteus morganii) as the first members of the IncL/M group of multidrug resistance (MDR) plasmids (1, 2). IncL/M plasmids are now commonly identified among environmental and clinical isolates (3–5). This group of plasmids can be considered an emerging threat since it has been increasingly identified...
