Detection of new SHV-12, SHV-5 and SHV-2a variants of extended spectrum Beta-lactamase in Klebsiella pneumoniae in Egypt

Abstract: BackgroundKlebsiella pneumoniae outbreaks possessing extended-spectrum β-lactamase- (ESBL) mediated resistance to third-generation cephalosporins have increased significantly in hospital and community settings worldwide. The study objective was to characterize prevalent genetic determinants of TEM, SHV and CTX-M types ESBL activity in K. pneumoniae isolates from Egypt.MethodsSixty five ESBL-producing K. pneumoniae strains, isolated from nosocomial and community-acquired infections from 10 Egyptian University h… Show more

“…Alignment of the sequences with wild type of SHV-5, SHV-12 and SHV-1 in E. coli and K. pneumoniae isolates on the GenBank with accession numbers (E. coli NC_004998.1, E. coli NC_024967.1 and K. pneumoniae X98098.1), respectively, was 90-100% ( Figure 1). This matched with Newire et al [30], who explained that comparison of the corresponding amino acid sequence of the 11 SHV positive isolates demonstrated the predominance of SHV-12, while SHV-5 and SHV-2a was the most closely related sequencing match in the remaining isolates. SHV-12 is thought to have evolved from SHV-2a, and SHV-5 from SHV-2.…”

“…However, there exists some reports that tend to suggest that TEM-1 may also contribute to the ESBL trait in concert with other β-lactamases. 7,40 Upon DNA sequencing of PCR products from all strains with bla group genes, the distribution of the β-lactamase subtypes corresponded with the M-PCR results. CTX-M-14 and CTX-M-3 were the most prevalent among the ESBL-producing clinical K. pneumoniae and E. coli strains.…”

“…K. pneumoniae isolates carrying multiple b-lactamase genes have been previously reported in other studies. 13,[43][44][45] Four isolates coexpressed bla CTX-M-15 along with other ESBLs. Three isolates harbored both SHV-5 and CTX-M-15, and only one isolate coproduced both SHV-12 and CTX-M-15.…”

“…9,10 The clonal dissemination of CTX-M-15-producing K. pneumoniae isolates has been reported in Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Iran, Oman, Lebanon, Gulf Council, Iraq, Kuwait, and Turkey. 9,[11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19] No data are available, so far, on ESBL-producing K. pneumoniae in Gaza Strip, Palestine and very scarce data in West Bank, Palestine. There have been reports of bla CTX-M-15 , bla CTX-M-56 , bla OXA-1 , bla SHV-1 , bla SHV-12 , bla SHV-32 , and bla TEM-1 genes in Gram-negative bacteria isolated from Palestinian patients in West Bank.…”
