streptogramin A acetyltransferase
Overview
Identification of a streptogramin A acetyltransferase gene in the chromosome of Yersinia enterocolitica.
The study identifies a streptogramin A acetyltransferase gene (sat) in the chromosome of Yersinia enterocolitica, demonstrating its role in conferring resistance to streptogramin A, B, and their combination.
The genome sequence of Salmonella enterica serovar Choleraesuis, a highly invasive and resistant zoonotic pathogen.
The study identifies multiple antimicrobial resistance genes on plasmids pSC138 and pSCV50 in Salmonella enterica serovar Choleraesuis SC-B67, including blaTEM-1, blaCMY-2, tetRA, strA, aadA2, sulI, sulII, catI, cmlA, aph, sat, mef, mer, ebr, qac, and blaTEM-67. Additionally, mutations in the chromosomal genes gyrA and parC, along with the inactivation of acrR, contribute to ciprofloxacin resistance.
Microarray-based characterisation of a Panton-Valentine leukocidin-positive community-acquired strain of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus
The study identified the presence of the tetK and far1 genes in a Panton-Valentine leukocidin-positive community-acquired methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strain, which conferred resistance to tetracycline and fusidic acid respectively. A novel plasmid (pUB102) carrying these genes was also characterized.
The genome of Streptococcus mitis B6--what is a commensal?
The study identifies multiple antibiotic resistance genes in Streptococcus mitis B6, including tetM, aacA-aphD, aphA, sat, and aadE, which confer resistance to tetracycline and aminoglycosides. Additionally, a mutation in rpoB (H486N) was found to confer rifampicin resistance.
A field guide to pandemic, epidemic and sporadic clones of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.
The study characterizes various methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) clones, highlighting their antimicrobial resistance and virulence-associated markers, with a focus on SCC mec types and PVL status.
Non-Typhoidal Salmonella in poultry meat and diarrhoeic patients: prevalence, antibiogram, virulotyping, molecular detection and sequencing of class I integrons in multidrug resistant strains.
The study identified several AMR genes, including aac(3)-Id, aadA2, aadA4, aadA7, dfrA15, lnuF, sat, and estX, in multidrug-resistant Salmonella strains isolated from poultry meat and diarrheic patients in Egypt.
Shifts in the Clonal Distribution of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus in Kuwait Hospitals: 1992-2010.
The study identified various AMR genes in MRSA isolates from Kuwait hospitals, including aphA3, aacA-aphD, ermA, ermC, mupA, tetK, tetM, fusC, far1, msrA, mphC, sat, qacA, qacC, merA, merB, dfrS1, aadD, fosB, cat, sdrM, icaA, icaC, and icaD, which conferred resistance to multiple antibiotics.
Variety of Antimicrobial Resistances and Virulence Factors in Staphylococcus aureus Isolates from Meat Products Legally and Illegally Introduced to Germany.
The study identified multiple antimicrobial resistance genes and mutations in Staphylococcus aureus isolates from meat products, including resistance to β-lactams, macrolides, aminoglycosides, tetracyclines, and others.
Molecular analysis of multidrug resistance in clinical isolates of Shigella spp. from 2001-2010 in Kolkata, India: role of integrons, plasmids, and topoisomerase mutations.
The study identified several AMR genes including dfrV, dfrA1, aadA, blaOXA, sat, InsE, and InsO, as well as mutations in gyrA and parC contributing to quinolone resistance in Shigella isolates.
The streptothricin acetyltransferase (sat) gene as a positive selectable marker for methanogenic archaea.
The study demonstrates that the sat gene from Streptomyces rochei can serve as a positive selectable marker for methanogenic archaea, particularly Methanosarcina species, by conferring resistance to nourseothricin.
MRSA Strains in Nepalese Rhesus Macaques (Macaca mulatta) and Their Environment.
The study identified several AMR genes in MRSA isolates from Rhesus macaques, environmental samples, and human patients in Nepal, including aacA-aadD, dfrA, erm(C), aacA-aphD, aphA3, sat, and blaZ.
