“…L. adecarboxylata is generally susceptible to cephalosporins, carbapenems, tetracyclines, aminoglycosides, quinolones, and chloramphenicol (Stock et al, 2004). Nevertheless, L. adecarboxylata isolates have evolved to acquire foreign antibiotic resistance genes, which encode extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) SHV-12 (Mazzariol et al, 2003) and CTX-M-3 (Shin et al, 2012), and carbapenemases IMP-1 (GenBank accession number KJ531212), IMP-4 (Betteridge et al, 2013; Leung et al, 2013), KPC-2 (Geffen et al, 2013; Weingarten et al, 2018), NDM-1 (Sun et al, 2015; Hoyos-Mallecot et al, 2017; Riazzo et al, 2017) and VIM-1 (Papagiannitsis et al, 2013; Papousek et al, 2017); from these strains, one NDM-encoding plasmid pP10164-NDM (accession number KP900016) (Sun et al, 2015), one VIM-encoding pLec-476cz (accession number KY320277) (Papousek et al, 2017), and several KPC-encoding plasmids (Weingarten et al, 2018) have been fully sequenced.…”
