Whole-genome analysis of antimicrobial-resistant <i>Escherichia coli</i> in human gut microbiota reveals its origin and flexibility in transmitting <i>mcr-1</i>

2021-02-19

Abstract excerpt

Multidrug resistant (MDR) Escherichia coli strains that carry extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) or colistin resistance gene mcr-1 have been identified in the human gut at an increasing incidence worldwide. In this study, we sampled and characterized MDR Enterobacteriaceae from the gut microbiota of healthy Singaporeans and show that the prevalence of ESBL-producing and mcr -positive Enterobacteriaceae is 2...
