Abstract
Raoultella planticola harboring genes that confer resistance to antimicrobials, such as carbapenems, have been associated with severe infections in immunocompromised patients. In this study, we reported the first whole genome sequence of a Brazilian isolate of R. planticola and the genomic context of antibiotic resistance markers. By whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of a carbapenem-resistant R. planticola isolate, RpHUM1, we found 23 resistance-encoding genes belonging to 9 classes of antibiotics (aminoglycosides, β-lactams, fluoroquinolones, fosfomycin, macrolides, phenicols, sulfonamides, tetracycline, and diaminopyrimidine derivatives) and 3 plasmids (RpHUM1pEaer-4382s, RpHUM1_pFDAARGOS_440, and RpHUM1pRSF1010). This isolate coharbored the genes blaKPC-2, which is carried by the plasmid RpHUM1pEaer-4382s, and blaNDM-1 and blaCTX-M-15 all located in the accessory genome. In addition, these genes were associated with, at least, one mobile genetic element. This comprehensive knowledge is of great importance for implementation of control measures to prevent the rapid dissemination of this neglected microorganism and their genetic resistance background.
期刊介绍:
Microbial Drug Resistance (MDR) is an international, peer-reviewed journal that covers the global spread and threat of multi-drug resistant clones of major pathogens that are widely documented in hospitals and the scientific community. The Journal addresses the serious challenges of trying to decipher the molecular mechanisms of drug resistance. MDR provides a multidisciplinary forum for peer-reviewed original publications as well as topical reviews and special reports.
MDR coverage includes:
Molecular biology of resistance mechanisms
Virulence genes and disease
Molecular epidemiology
Drug design
Infection control.
