The emergence of multidrug-resistant and extensively drug-resistant (XDR) tuberculosis (TB) is a serious global threat. Aminoglycoside antibiotics are used as a last resort to treat XDR-TB. Resistance to the aminoglycoside kanamycin is a hallmark of XDR-TB. Here, we reveal the function and structure of the mycobacterial protein Eis responsible for resistance to kanamycin in a significant fracti...
Bifidobacteria have received significant attention due to their contribution to human gut health and the use of specific strains as probiotics. It is thus not surprising that there has also been significant interest with respect to their antibiotic resistance profile. Numerous culture-based studies have demonstrated that bifidobacteria are resistant to the majority of aminoglycosides, but are s...
Acinetobacter baumannii strains resistant to all beta-lactams, aminoglycosides, and fluoroquinolones have emerged in many medical centers. Potential mechanisms contributing to antimicrobial resistance were investigated in 40 clinical isolates endemic to New York City. The isolates were examined for the presence of various beta-lactamases, aminoglycoside-modifying enzymes, and mutations in gyrA ...
The most frequent determinant of aminoglycoside antibiotic resistance in Gram-positive bacterial pathogens is a bifunctional enzyme, aminoglycoside acetyltransferase-6'-aminoglycoside phosphotransferase-2" (AAC(6')- aminoglycoside phosphotransferase-2", capable of modifying a wide selection of clinically relevant antibiotics through its acetyltransferase and kinase activities. The aminoglycosid...
Enterobacteriaceae species are important human pathogens while increasing number of antibiotic resistant strains are detected worldwide. The most common antibiotic resistance in Enterobacteriaceae is observed against beta-lactams, fluoroquinolones, aminoglycosides while recently resistance to polymyxins has also appeared. Beta-lactam resistance is mainly conferred by beta-lactamases, capable to...
Here, we report a resistance mechanism that is induced through the modulation of 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) processing on the exposure of Escherichia coli cells to aminoglycoside antibiotics. We observed decreased expression levels of RNase G associated with increased RNase III activity on rng mRNA in a subgroup of E. coli isolates that transiently acquired resistance to low levels of kanamycin o...
Background and Objectives: Resistance to aminoglycosides has become a major problem in the treatment of urinary tract infection due to the extensive use of this antibiotic group. Due to the increased resistance of Escherichia coli to aminoglycosides, this study systematically evaluated the resistance to aminoglycosides by Escherichia coli isolated from urinary tract infection (UTI) in Ira...
Aminoglycoside antibiotics, used to treat bacterial infections by interfering with proofreading during protein synthesis, cause sensorineural hearing loss in genetically susceptible individuals. The only aminoglycoside-hypersensitivity mutations which have been described in humans are in the mitochondrial 125 rRNA gene, potentially allowing increased antibiotic binding to mitochondrial ribosome...
Bacterial resistance to antibiotics is a serious public health problem. The emergence of superbugs pathogenic bacteria that can survive the effects of most commonly used antibiotics significantly compromises existing treatments against infectious diseases. The predominant mechanism of resistance to aminoglycosides, a class of bactericidal antibiotics that are widely used in hospitals, is ...
