Abstract excerpt
Tigecycline is a last-resort antimicrobial that exhibits promising activity against carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPE). However, mobile tigecycline resistance genes, tet (X) and tmexCD-toprJ , have emerged in China and have spread possibly worldwide. Tet(X) family proteins, Tet(X3) to Tet(X14), function as tigecycline-inactivating enzymes, and TMexCD-TOprJ complexes function as efflux pumps for tigec...
