Capnocytophaga ochracea: characterization of a plasmid-encoded extended-spectrum TEM-17 beta-lactamase in the phylum Flavobacter-bacteroides.

ABSTRACT: A plasmid-encoded extended-spectrum TEM beta-lactamase with a pI of 5.5 was detected in a Capnocytophaga ochracea clinical isolate. The bla gene was associated with a strong TEM-2 promoter and was derived from bla(TEM-1a) with a single-amino-acid substitution: Glu(104)-->Lys, previously assigned to TEM-17, which is thus the first TEM beta-lactamase to be reported in the phylum Flavobacter-Bacteroides.

Genetic analysis of an ambler class A extended-spectrum beta-lactamase from Capnocytophaga ochracea.

Project description:A beta-lactamase gene (cfxA3, 966 bp) was isolated from a beta-lactam-resistant Capnocytophaga ochracea clinical isolate and amplified using primers from the cfxA gene of Bacteroides vulgatus. The MICs of third-generation cephalosporins were much higher than those of the transconjugant Escherichia coli strain. The deduced protein sequence, by comparison with CfxA2 of Prevotella intermedia, had a Y239D substitution and possessed the characteristics of a class A, group 2e beta-lactamase.

TEM-71, a novel plasmid-encoded, extended-spectrum beta-lactamase produced by a clinical isolate of Klebsiella pneumoniae.

Project description:TEM-71, a novel extended-spectrum beta-lactamase from a Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolate, had an isoelectric point of 6.0 and a substrate profile showing preferential hydrolysis of cefotaxime over ceftazidime. It differed from TEM-1 by two substitutions, Gly238Ser and Glu240Lys, and was under the control of the strong P4 promoter.

Chromosome- and plasmid-encoded beta-lactamases in Capnocytophaga spp.

Project description:Chromosome- and plasmid-encoded CfxA2 and CfxA3 beta-lactamases were detected in Capnocytophaga spp. from oral sources in France, Norway, and the United States. Unidentified chromosome-encoded beta-lactamases were present in Capnocytophaga sputigena. Nucleotide sequence analysis of the CfxA3-encoding plasmid from C. ochracea revealed an unreported insertion sequence (ISCoc1) upstream of the cfxA gene.

ColE1-like plasmid pIP843 of Klebsiella pneumoniae encoding extended-spectrum beta-lactamase CTX-M-17.

Project description:The resistance of Klebsiella pneumoniae BM4493, isolated in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, to cefotaxime and aztreonam was due to production of a novel beta-lactamase, CTX-M-17. The bla(CTX-M-17) gene was borne by 7,086-bp plasmid pIP843, which was entirely sequenced and which was found to belong to the ColE1 family. The 876-bp bla(CTX-M-17) gene differed from bla(CTX-M-14) by 2 nucleotides, which led to the single amino acid substitution Glu289-->Lys. bla(CTX-M-17) was flanked upstream by an ISEcp1-like element and downstream by an insertion sequence (IS) IS903 variant designated IS903-C. The transcriptional start site of bla(CTX-M-17) was located 109 nucleotides upstream from the initiation codon in the ISEcp1-like element, which also provided the promoter sequences. Plasmid pIP843, which was non-self-transferable and nonmobilizable, contained five open reading frames transcribed in the same orientation. Regions homologous to sequences coding for putative RNA II and RNA I transcripts, a rom gene, which is involved in initiation of replication, and a cer-like gene, which is responsible for the stability of ColE1-like plasmids, were identified. Consensus sequences for putative replication (oriV) and transfer (oriT) origins were present. Results of primer extension experiments indicated that ISEcp1 provides the promoter for expression of bla(CTX-M-17) and may contribute to dissemination of this gene.

Brain abscess associated with multidrug-resistant Capnocytophaga ochracea infection.

Project description:Brain abscesses are occasionally associated with a dental source of infection. An unusual case of frontal lobe abscess in a nonimmunocompromised child infected with multidrug-resistant Capnocytophaga ochracea is described and confirms the pathogenic potential of this organism to cause human disease in the central nervous system.

Involvement of luxS in Biofilm Formation by Capnocytophaga ochracea.

Project description:Capnocytophaga ochracea is present in the dental plaque biofilm of patients with periodontitis. Biofilm cells change their phenotype through quorum sensing in response to fluctuations in cell-population density. Quorum sensing is mediated by auto-inducers (AIs). AI-2 is involved in intercellular signaling, and production of its distant precursor is catalyzed by LuxS, an enzyme involved in the activated methyl cycle. Our aim was to clarify the role of LuxS in biofilm formation by C. ochracea. Two luxS-deficient mutants, TmAI2 and LKT7, were constructed from C. ochracea ATCC 27872 by homologous recombination. The mutants produced significantly less AI-2 than the wild type. The growth rates of these mutants were similar to that of the wild-type in both undiluted Tryptic soy broth and 0.5 × Tryptic soy broth. However, according to crystal violet staining, they produced significantly less biofilm than the wild type. Confocal laser scanning microscopy and scanning electron microscopy showed that the biofilm of the TmAI2 strain had a rougher structure than that of the wild type. Complementation of TmAI-2 with extrinsic AI-2 from the culture supernatant of wild-type strain did not restore biofilm formation by the TmAI2 strain, but complementation of LKT7 strain with luxS partially restored biofilm formation. These results indicate that LuxS is involved in biofilm formation by C. ochracea, and that the attenuation of biofilm formation by the mutants is likely caused by a defect in the activated methyl cycle rather than by a loss of AI-2.

TEM-184, a Novel TEM-Derived Extended-Spectrum ?-Lactamase with Enhanced Activity against Aztreonam.

Project description:TEM-184, a novel TEM-derived extended-spectrum ?-lactamase (ESBL), was isolated from an Escherichia coli ST354 clinical strain. Compared to TEM-1, TEM-184 contains the mutations Q6K, E104K, I127V, R164S, and M182T. Kinetic analysis of this enzyme revealed extended-spectrum activity against aztreonam in particular. TEM-184 was also susceptible to inhibitors, including clavulanic acid, tazobactam, and avibactam.

Complete genome sequence of Capnocytophaga ochracea type strain (VPI 2845).

Project description:Capnocytophaga ochracea (Prévot et al. 1956) Leadbetter et al. 1982 is the type species of the genus Capnocytophaga. It is of interest because of its location in the Flavobacteriaceae, a genomically not yet charted family within the order Flavobacteriales. The species grows as fusiform to rod shaped cells which tend to form clumps and are able to move by gliding. C. ochracea is known as a capnophilic (CO(2)-requiring) organism with the ability to grow under anaerobic as well as aerobic conditions (oxygen concentration larger than 15%), here only in the presence of 5% CO(2). Strain VPI 2845(T), the type strain of the species, is portrayed in this report as a gliding, Gram-negative bacterium, originally isolated from a human oral cavity. Here we describe the features of this organism, together with the complete genome sequence, and annotation. This is the first completed genome sequence from the flavobacterial genus Capnocytophaga, and the 2,612,925 bp long single replicon genome with its 2193 protein-coding and 59 RNA genes is a part of the Genomic Encyclopedia of Bacteria and Archaea project.

Project description:A novel natural TEM beta-lactamase with extended-spectrum activity, TEM-138, was identified in a ceftazidime-resistant clinical isolate of Salmonella enterica serovar Infantis. Compared to TEM-1, TEM-138 contains the following mutations: E104K, N175I, and G238S. The bla(TEM-138) gene was located on a 50-kb transferable plasmid. Expression studies with Escherichia coli revealed efficient ceftazidimase and cefotaximase activities for TEM-138.

Novel TEM-type extended-spectrum beta-lactamase, TEM-134, in a Citrobacter koseri clinical isolate.

Project description:A new natural TEM derivative with extended-spectrum beta-lactamase activity, TEM-134, was identified in a ceftazidime-resistant clinical isolate of Citrobacter koseri. Compared to TEM-1, TEM-134 contains the following mutations: Q39K, E104K, R164H, and G238S. The bla(TEM-134) gene was not transferable by conjugation and, apparently, was chromosomally encoded. Expression studies with Escherichia coli revealed efficient cefotaximase and ceftazidimase activity for TEM-134.
