Functionally redundant forms of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases and aminoglycoside-modifying enzymes drive the evolution of two distinct multidrug resistance gene clusters in clinical populations of EXPEC
2018-07-12
Abstract excerpt
We evaluate the distribution of genetic markers for antibiotic resistance in 276 genomic sequences of Extraintestinal Pathogenic E. coli from two hospitals on the U.S. West coast. Plasmid-borne genes encoding drug-inactivating enzymes dominate the distribution of aminoglycoside and β -lactam resistance markers. These genes can be assigned based on their distribution to two mutually exclusive complementarity grou...
