NDM-1-producing multidrug-resistant Proteus mirabilis brings formidable clinical challenges. We report a nosocomial outbreak of carbapenem-resistant P. mirabilis in China. Six P. mirabilis strains collected in the same ward showed close phylogenetic relatedness, indicating clonal expansion. Illumina and MinION sequencing revealed that three isolates harbored a novel Salmonella genomic island 1 carrying a blaNDM–1 gene (SGI1-1NDM), while three other isolates showed elevated carbapenem resistance and carried a similar SGI1 but with two blaNDM–1 gene copies (SGI1-2NDM). Four new single nucleotide mutations were present in the genomes of the two-blaNDM–1-harboring isolates, indicating later emergence of the SGI1-2NDM structure. Passage experiments indicated that both SGI variants were stably persistent in this clone without blaNDM–1 copy number changes. This study characterizes two novel blaNDM–1-harboring SGI1 variants in P. mirabilis and provides a new insight into resistance gene copy number variation in bacteria.

ABSTRACTAcquisition ofblaNDM-1in bacterial species, such asProteus mirabilisthat is intrinsically resistant to tetracycline, tigecycline and colistin, will make clinical treatment extremely difficult. Here, we characterized an NDM-1-producing clinical isolate ofP. mirabilis(PM58) that displayed an extensively drug-resistant (XDR) phenotype, susceptible only to aztreonam. Molecular analysis revealed that PM58 harbored both a conjugative NDM-1 plasmid and a novelSalmonellagenomic island 1 variant on chromosome.

ABSTRACT Salmonella genomic island 1 (SGI1) and variants (SGI1-I and the new variant SGI1-O) were mapped in five strains of Proteus mirabilis isolated from humans and food in China. Sequencing showed that SGI1 and variants were integrated at the 3′ end of the chromosomal thdF gene as previously described for Salmonella strains.

Abstract Objectives To characterize the MDR genomic islands (GIs) in Proteus mirabilis isolates. Methods Two P. mirabilis strains (C55 and C74) of chicken origin were subjected to WGS (HiSeq and PacBio) and the MDR GIs were determined. Results P. mirabilis strains C55 and C74 are clonal strains and harbour different Proteus genomic island 2 (PGI2) variants (PGI2-C55 and PGI2-C74). The MDR region of PGI2-C55 is composed of two class 1 integrons, separated by a region containing seven copies of IS26 and eight resistance genes, including blaCTX-M-3 and fosA3. The region in PGI2-C74 is a complete In4-type class 1 integron, harbouring five gene cassettes (dfrA16, blaCARB-2, aadA2, cmlA1 and aadA1). In addition, C55 and C74 carry an SXT/R391 integrative and conjugative element (ICEPmiJpn1), harbouring blaCMY-2, and a novel 50.46 kb genomic resistance island named PmGRI1-C55. PmGRI1-C55 harbours a tyrosine-type recombinase/integrase that might be responsible for the integration of PmGRI1-C55 at the 3′ end of tRNA-Sec. It carries an MDR region derived from Tn2670 that harbours a Tn21 region and carries six resistance genes (catA1, blaTEM-1b, aphA1a, sul2, strA and strB). Blast analysis showed diverse PmGRI1 variants in P. mirabilis and Escherichia coli strains. Conclusions The finding of the two new PGI2 variants highlights that the homologous recombination between shared components of class 1 integrons and transposition by IS26 promote the diversity of MDR regions in PGI2. PmGRI1 is a new GI that carries various resistance genes identified in P. mirabilis and E. coli.

ABSTRACTFour differentSalmonellagenomic island 1 (SGI1) variants, including two novel variants, were characterized in oneSalmonella entericaserovar Rissen sequence type ST1917 isolate and threeProteus mirabilisisolates from swine farms in China. One novel variant was derived from SGI1-B with the backbone gene S021 disrupted by a 12.72-kb IS26composite transposon containing thedfrA17-aadA5cassettes and macrolide inactivation gene clustermphA-mrx-mphR. The other one was an integron-free SGI1 and contained a 183-bp truncated S025 next to IS6100and S044.
