Mechanistic Insights into Crosstalk of Tet(X) and MCR-1, Two Resistance Enzymes Co-produced by A Single Plasmid
2020-03-08
Abstract excerpt
Tigecycline and colistin are few of last-resort defenses used in anti-infection therapies against carbapenem-resistant bacterial pathogens. The successive emergence of plasmid-borne tet (X) tigecycline resistance mechanism and mobile colistin resistance ( mcr ) determinant, renders them clinically ineffective, posing a risky challenge to global public health. Here, we report that co-carriage of tet (X6) and mc...
