Population Structure Analysis

ABSTRACTThe population structure of 71 carbapenem-resistantAcinetobacter baumanniiclinical isolates from several hospitals in Brazil was investigated by ApaI pulsed-field gel electrophoresis,blaOXA-51-like subtyping, and multilocus sequence typing (Institute Pasteur scheme). In addition to the predominance of strains carryingblaOXA-23, we detected the presence ofblaOXA-72andblaOXA-231. We observed a predominance of clonal complex 1 (CC1), CC15, and CC79 and representative strains of the worldwide-disseminated international clone I.

Potential Use

Pneumolysin (Ply) is a major virulence factor of Streptococcus pneumoniae and is produced by all known clinical isolates of pneumococci. Pneumolysin toxoids are being considered as vaccine candidates. We investigated the diversity of pneumolysin among 194 nasopharyngeal pneumococci characterized by serotyping and multilocus sequence typing (MLST). Eight Ply protein alleles were identified, four of which were novel. The 4 novel alleles varied at 10 different amino acid positions, from a total of 147, 3 of these substitutions have been previously reported in different combinations. The protein allele correlated closely with MLST. It is critical that the presence of pneumolysin variants is considered with regards to the potential use of Ply in future vaccine formulations, as variation in Ply amino acid sequence may influence the immunogenicity of vaccines based on the presence of an individual Ply allele.
