ABSTRACT We reported the complete nucleotide sequence of a tet(X4)-carrying plasmid, pSTB20-1T, from a tigecycline-resistant Escherichia coli isolate in China. Sequence analysis indicated that pSTB20-1T contains a hybrid plasmid backbone and a tet(X4)-containing multidrug resistance region, likely originated through recombination of multiple plasmids. tet(X4) was flanked by two ISCR2, which may be responsible for tet(X4) mobilization. The occurrence and transmission of this novel hybrid plasmid may exacerbate the spread of the clinically significant tet(X4) gene.

ABSTRACTThe sequence of pTN48, a plasmid of the FII-FIB replicon type that encodes a CTX-M-14 enzyme in anEscherichia colistrain of the phylogenetic group D2O102-ST405 clone, was determined. pTN48 is, for the most part, a mosaic of virulence, antibiotic resistance, and addiction system modules found in various other plasmids. The presence of multiple addiction systems indicates that the plasmid should be stably maintained in theE. coliclone, favoring dissemination of the CTX-M-14 enzyme.

ABSTRACTWe report the complete nucleotide sequence of a plasmid, pA31-12, carryingblaCTX-M-55andmcr-1from a chickenEscherichia coliisolate. pA31-12 has an IncI2 replicon that displays extensive sequence similarity with pHN1122-1-borneblaCTX-M-55and pHNSHP45-bornemcr-1. Insertion sequences ISEcp1and ISApl1are responsible for the mobilization ofblaCTX-M-55andmcr-1, respectively. The colocalization ofmcr-1with an extended-spectrum β-lactamase gene on a conjugative plasmid may accelerate the dissemination of both genes by coselection.
