Draft Genome Sequences of Four Metallo-Beta-Lactamase-Producing Multidrug-Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae Clinical Isolates, Including Two Colistin-Resistant Strains, from Cairo, Egypt.

ABSTRACT: The emergence and spread of metallo-beta-lactamase-producing multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae are a serious public health threat. Here, we report the draft genome sequences of four K. pneumoniae strains isolated from Cairo, Egypt, including two panresistant colistin-resistant strains. Genome annotation indicated a number of virulence and resistance genes agreeing with observed phenotypes.

<i>AmpC β</i>-Lactamase Variable Expression in Common Multidrug-Resistant Nosocomial Bacterial Pathogens from a Tertiary Hospital in Cairo, Egypt.

Project description:The emergence of AmpC (pAmpC) β-lactamases conferring resistance to the third-generation cephalosporins has become a major clinical concern worldwide. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the expression of AmpC β-lactamase encoding gene among the pathogenic Gram-positive and Gram-negative resistant bacteria screened from clinical samples of Egyptian patients enrolled into El-Qasr El-Ainy Tertiary Hospital in Cairo, Egypt. A total of 153 bacterial isolates of the species Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Enterococcus faecium were isolated from patients diagnosed with urinary tract infection (UTI), respiratory tract infection (RTI), and wound infections. The total number of E. faecium isolates was 53, comprising 29 urine isolates, 5 sputum isolates, and 19 wound swab isolates, whereas the total number of P. aeruginosa isolates was 49, comprising 27 urine isolates, 7 sputum isolates, and 15 wound swab isolates, and that of the K. pneumoniae isolates was 51, comprising 20 urine isolates, 25 sputum isolates, and 6 wound swab isolates. Our results indicated that there is no significant difference in the expression of AmpC β-lactamase gene among the tested bacterial species with respect to the type of infection and/or clinical specimen. However, the expression patterns of AmpC β-lactamase gene markedly differed according to the antibacterial resistance characteristics of the tested isolates.

Comparative Genome-Scale Metabolic Modeling of Metallo-Beta-Lactamase-Producing Multidrug-Resistant <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> Clinical Isolates.

Project description:The emergence and spread of metallo-beta-lactamase-producing multidrug-resistant (MDR) Klebsiella pneumoniae is a serious public health threat, which is further complicated by the increased prevalence of colistin resistance. The link between antimicrobial resistance acquired by strains of Klebsiella and their unique metabolic capabilities has not been determined. Here, we reconstruct genome-scale metabolic models for 22 K. pneumoniae strains with various resistance profiles to different antibiotics, including two strains exhibiting colistin resistance isolated from Cairo, Egypt. We use the models to predict growth capabilities on 265 different sole carbon, nitrogen, sulfur, and phosphorus sources for all 22 strains. Alternate nitrogen source utilization of glutamate, arginine, histidine, and ethanolamine among others provided discriminatory power for identifying resistance to amikacin, tetracycline, and gentamicin. Thus, genome-scale model based predictions of growth capabilities on alternative substrates may lead to construction of classification trees that are indicative of antibiotic resistance in Klebsiella isolates.

Biochemical Characterization of VIM-39, a VIM-1-Like Metallo-?-Lactamase Variant from a Multidrug-Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolate from Greece.

Project description:VIM-39, a VIM-1-like metallo-?-lactamase variant (VIM-1 Thr33Ala His224Leu) was identified in a clinical isolate of Klebsiella pneumoniae belonging to sequence type 147. VIM-39 hydrolyzed ampicillin, cephalothin, and imipenem more efficiently than did VIM-1 and VIM-26 (a VIM-1 variant with the His224Leu substitution) because of higher turnover rates.

OXA-163-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae in Cairo, Egypt, in 2009 and 2010.

Project description:Two genetically unrelated OXA-163-carrying Klebsiella pneumoniae strains were identified from two infection cases in June 2009 and May 2010 in Cairo, Egypt. OXA-163-producing Enterobacteriaceae had been previously reported in Argentina only. Both patients had no history of travel abroad. The emergence of this newly recognized OXA-48-related ?-lactamase able to hydrolyze cephalosporins and carbapenems is especially worrying in a geographic area where OXA-48 is endemic and effective surveillance for antibiotic resistance is largely unaffordable.

Emergence of metallo-?-lactamase NDM-1-producing multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli in Australia.

Project description:A multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli isolate recovered in Australia produced a carbapenem-hydrolyzing ?-lactamase. Molecular investigations revealed the first identification of the bla(NDM-1) metallo-?-lactamase gene in that country. In addition, this E. coli isolate expressed the extended-spectrum ?-lactamase CTX-M-15, together with two 16S rRNA methylases, namely, ArmA and RmtB, conferring a high level of resistance to aminoglycosides.

Dissemination of Carbapenem-Resistance among Multidrug Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa carrying Metallo-Beta-Lactamase Genes, including the Novel blaIMP-65 Gene in Thailand.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Pseudomonas aeruginosa is considered as one of the most emerging threats in this century. Serious infections caused by this pathogen are often treated by carbapenems which are the last resource of antibiotics. Metallo-beta-lactamases (MBLs) production is one of the most important carbepenem resistance mechanisms and is usually related with nosocomial infections caused by P. aeruginosa. This study was aimed to determine the prevalence of MBL genes and distribution pattern of MBLs producing P. aeruginosa strains in Thailand. MATERIALS AND METHODS:Specific primers were designed to detect MBL genes including IMP-, VIM-, and NDM-type MBL genes. Multilocus sequence typing method was used to determine the dissemination pattern of carbapenem-resistance among multidrug-resistant (CR-MDR) P. aeruginosa. RESULTS:A total of 153 P. aeruginosa clinical isolates were characterized as CR-MDR. Among those, 31 P. aeruginosa clinical isolates (20.3%) presented metallo-beta-lactamase genes which could be divided into VIM-type (14 strains) and IMP-type (17 strains). blaIMP-1, blaIMP-13, blaIMP-14a, and blaVIM-2 genes were detected. Moreover, a novel IMP-type MBL, blaIMP-65 was discovered and it was demonstrated to be the unique group of MBLs in Thailand. It was of interest that ST235 was the major ST type in Thailand followed by ST964 and ST111 and ST235 was detected in both MBL harboring and non-MBL harboring strains. CONCLUSION:This study reported the dissemination of MBL gene including novel MBL, blaIMP-65. This study was also demonstrated major ST of P. aeruginosa which was ST235, followed by ST964 and ST111. Moreover, it is also the first report on many P. aeruginosa STs in Thailand: ST273, ST292, ST621, ST1584, and ST1816 which emphasized the dissemination trait difference of MBLs harboring P. aeruginosa in Thailand.

Emergence of multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates producing VIM-4 metallo-beta-lactamase, CTX-M-15 extended-spectrum beta-lactamase, and CMY-4 AmpC beta-lactamase in a Tunisian university hospital.

Project description:Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolates resistant to carbapenems were recovered from 11 patients in the hospital of Sfax, Tunisia. The isolates were closely related as shown by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis, and they produced VIM-4 metallo-enzyme, CTX-M-15 extended-spectrum beta-lactamase, and CMY-4 AmpC enzyme. The bla(VIM-4) gene is part of a class 1 integron.

Nosocomial outbreak caused by multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa producing IMP-13 metallo-beta-lactamase.

Project description:An outbreak of Pseudomonas aeruginosa showing a multidrug-resistant (MDR) phenotype (including carbapenems, ceftazidime, cefepime, gentamicin, tobramycin, and fluoroquinolones) was observed, during a 5-month period, in a general intensive care unit of a large tertiary care and clinical research hospital in southern Italy. The outbreak involved 15 patients, with a total of 87 isolates, mostly from lower respiratory tract specimens. Analysis of isolates involved in the outbreak revealed production of metallo-beta-lactamase (MBL) activity, and genotyping by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis of genomic DNA digested by SpeI revealed clonal relatedness among isolates. Molecular analysis of the MBL determinant showed the presence of a bla(IMP-13) gene carried on a gene cassette inserted in a class 1 integron which also contained an aacA4 aminoglycoside resistance cassette encoding an AAC(6')-Ib enzyme. The bla(IMP-13)-containing integron and its genetic environment appeared to be similar to those found in P. aeruginosa isolates producing IMP-13 from a hospital in Rome. The bla(IMP-13) gene was not transferable by conjugation and was apparently carried on the chromosome. The outbreak was coincidental with a shortage of nursing personnel, and resolution was apparently associated with reinstatement of nursing personnel and reinforcement of general infection control practices within the intensive care unit. To our best knowledge this is the first description of a nosocomial outbreak of relatively large size caused by an IMP-producing gram-negative pathogen in Europe.
