Molecular characterization of ISCR1-mediated blaPER-1 in a non-O1, non-O139 Vibrio cholerae strain from China.

چکیده
We report the detection of PER-1 extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) in a clinical non-O1, non-O139 Vibrio cholerae strain from China. ISCR1-mediated bla(PER-1) was embedded in a complex In4 family class 1 integron belonging to the lineage of Tn1696 on a conjugative IncA/C plasmid. A free 8.98-kb circular molecule present with the ISCR1-bla(PER-1)-truncated 3'-conserved sequence (CS) structure was detected in this isolate. These findings may provide insight into the mobilization of bla(PER-1).

Genomic characterization of non-O1, non-O139 Vibrio cholerae reveals genes for a type III secretion system.
Non-O1, non-O139 Vibrio cholerae can cause gastroenteritis and extraintestinal infections, but, unlike O1 and O139 strains of V. cholerae, little is known about the virulence gene content of non-O1, non-O139 strains and their phylogenetic relationship to other pathogenic V. cholerae. Comparative genomic microarray analysis of four pathogenic non-O1, non-O139 strains indicates that these strains...

A total of 26 strains of Vibrio cholerae, including members of the O1, O139, and non-O1, non-O139 serogroups from both clinical and environmental sources, were examined for the presence of genes encoding cholera toxin (ctxA), zonula occludens toxin (zot), accessory cholera enterotoxin (ace), hemolysin (hlyA), NAG-specific heat-stable toxin (st), toxin-coregulated pilus (tcpA), and outer membran...

A toxigenic non-O1/non-O139 strain of Vibrio cholerae (10259) was found to contain a new variant of the toxin-coregulated pilus (TCP) protein gene (tcpA) as determined by PCR and Southern hybridization experiments. Nucleotide sequence analysis data of the new tcpA gene in strain 10259 (O53) showed it to be about 74 and 72% identical to those of O1 classical and El Tor biotype strains, respectiv...

Vibrio cholerae, the causative agent of major epidemics of diarrheal disease in Bangladesh, South America, Southeastern Asia, and Africa, was isolated from clinical samples and from aquatic environments during and between epidemics over the past 20 years. To determine the evolutionary relationships and molecular diversity of these strains, in order to understand sources, origin, and epidemiolog...
متن کاملComparison of Vibrio cholerae O139 with V. cholerae O1 classical and El Tor biotypes.
Vibrio cholerae O139 is a recently identified non-O1 V. cholerae strain responsible for outbreaks of epidemic cholera in India, Bangladesh, and Thailand in the past 2 years. Other workers have demonstrated the presence of the cholera toxin genetic element in V. cholerae O139, unlike the situation for other non-O1 V. cholerae strains. We sought to compare further this strain with strains of V. c...
