Chromosomal integration of <i>bla</i> <sub>CTX-M</sub> genes in diverse <i>Escherichia coli</i> isolates recovered from river water in Japan
2022-03-06
Abstract excerpt
Occurrence of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli (ESBLEC) in environmental waters is of great concern. However, unlike clinical ESBLEC, their genetic characteristics, in particular the genetic contexts of ESBL genes, are not well understood. In this study, we sequenced and analyzed the genomes of CTX-M-producing E. coli isolates recovered from river water to fully characterize the ge...
