Genomic characterization of 16S rRNA methyltransferase-producing Escherichia coli isolates from the Parisian area, France
9 Mar 2020
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The resistance to all aminoglycosides (AGs) conferred by 16S rRNA methyltransferase enzymes (16S-RMTases) is a major public health concern. OBJECTIVES: To characterize the resistance genotype, its genetic environment and plasmid support, and the phylogenetic relatedness of 16S-RMTase-producing Escherichia coli from France. METHODS: We screened 137 E. coli isolates resistant to all clinically relevant...
