Novel Chromosomal Mutations Responsible for Fosfomycin Resistance in . | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • Fosfomycin resistance arises from either chromosomal mutations or plasmid-mediated genes, with some resistant isolates lacking these mechanisms.
  • The study examined different groups of isolates, identifying specific mutations that significantly increase resistance levels, as well as analyzing gene expression changes.
  • Overall, new mutations in certain genes were linked to fosfomycin resistance in clinical isolates, reinforcing the complexity of antibiotic resistance mechanisms.

Article Abstract

Fosfomycin resistance in results from chromosomal mutations or acquisition of plasmid-mediated genes. Because these mechanisms may be absent in some resistant isolates, we aimed at decipher the genetic basis of fosfomycin resistance in . Different groups of isolates were studied: fosfomycin-resistant mutants selected from CFT073 (MIC = 1 mg/L) and two groups (wildtype and non-wildtype) of clinical isolates. Single-nucleotide allelic replacement was performed to confirm the implication of novel mutations into resistance. Induction of expression by glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) was assessed by RT-qPCR. The genome of all clinical isolates was sequenced by MiSeq (Illumina). Two first-step mutants were obtained from CFT073 (MICs, 128 mg/L) with single mutations: G469R in (M3); F384L in (M4). Second-step mutants (MICs, 256 mg/L) presented additional mutations: R282V in (M7 from M3); Q558 in (M8 from M4). Introduction of or mutations by site-directed mutagenesis conferred a 128-fold increase in fosfomycin MICs, whereas single mutations in or were only responsible for a 2-fold increase. Also, these mutations abolished the induction of expression by G6P. All 14 fosfomycin-susceptible clinical isolates (MICs, 0.5-8 mg/L) were devoid of any mutation. At least one genetic change was detected in all but one fosfomycin-resistant clinical isolates (MICs, 32 - >256 mg/L) including 8, 17, 18, 5, and 8 in , , , , and genes, respectively. In conclusion, novel mutations in and are associated with fosfomycin resistance in clinical isolates.
