Inter-phylum circulation of a beta-lactamase - encoding gene: a rare but observable event

2023-11-10

Abstract excerpt

Beta-lactam degradation by beta-lactamases is the most common mechanism of beta-lactam resistance in Gram-negative bacteria. Beta-lactamase encoding genes can be transferred between closely-related bacteria, but spontaneous inter-phylum transfers (between distantly related bacteria) has never been reported. Here, we describe an extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-encoding gene ( bla MUN-1 ) shared between the...
