We investigated the molecular characteristics of ESBL-producing Escherichia coli in Japan. A total of 101 clinical isolates of ESBL-positive E. coli collected in Japan between June 2008 and November 2009 were studied. Among the 101 strains, 97 were positive for CTX-M, while 47 and two were positive for TEM and SHV, respectively. Sequencing revealed that CTX-M-14 was most common (49/101), followed by CTX-M-27 (22/101) and CTX-M-15 (8/101). Based on MLST data, seven of eight CTX-M-15 producers belonged to ST131. This is the first report about clinical isolates of E. coli ST131 possessing CTX-M-15 in Japan.
我们研究了日本产 ESBL 大肠杆菌的分子特征。我们研究了 2008 年 6 月至 2009 年 11 月期间在日本收集的 101 株 ESBL 阳性大肠杆菌的临床分离株。在 101 株菌株中,97 株为 CTX-M 阳性,47 株和 2 株分别为 TEM 和 SHV 阳性。测序结果显示,CTX-M-14 最为常见(49/101),其次是 CTX-M-27(22/101)和 CTX-M-15(8/101)。根据 MLST 数据,8 株 CTX-M-15 生产者中有 7 株属于 ST131。这是日本首次报告大肠杆菌 ST131 临床分离株携带 CTX-M-15。
