MCR-2-mediated plasmid-borne polymyxin resistance most likely originates from Moraxella pluranimalium

19 Jun 2017

Abstract excerpt

Sir, The recent identification of the first plasmid-mediated polymyxin resistance determinants, namely the MCR-1 and MCR-2 enzymes, has constituted an ultimate threat of pandrug resistance in Gram-negative organisms.1–3 These enzymes have been reported only in Enterobacteriaceae, mainly in Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae; however, there have been reports from other enterobacterial genera, including...
