Biochemical sequence analyses of GES-1, a novel class A extended-spectrum beta-lactamase, and the class 1 integron In52 from Klebsiella pneumoniae.

Klebsiella pneumoniae ORI-1 was isolated in 1998 in France from a rectal swab of a 1-month-old girl who was previously hospitalized in Cayenne Hospital, Cayenne, French Guiana. This strain harbored a ca. 140-kb nontransferable plasmid, pTK1, that conferred an extended-spectrum cephalosporin resistance profile antagonized by the addition of clavulanic acid, tazobactam, or imipenem. The gene for GES-1 (Guiana extended-spectrum beta-lactamase) was cloned, and its protein was expressed in Escherichia coli DH10B, where this pI-5. 8 beta-lactamase of a ca. 31-kDa molecular mass conferred resistance to oxyimino cephalosporins (mostly to ceftazidime). GES-1 is weakly related to the other plasmid-located Ambler class A extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs). The highest percentage of amino acid identity was obtained with the carbenicillinase GN79 from Proteus mirabilis; with YENT, a chromosome-borne penicillinase from Yersinia enterocolitica; and with L-2, a chromosome-borne class A cephalosporinase from Stenotrophomonas maltophilia (36% amino acid identity each). However, a dendrogram analysis showed that GES-1 clustered within a class A ESBL subgroup together with ESBLs VEB-1 and PER-1. Sequencing of a 7,098-bp DNA fragment from plasmid pTK1 revealed that the GES-1 gene was located on a novel class 1 integron named In52 that was characterized by (i) a 5' conserved segment containing an intI1 gene possessing two putative promoters, P(1) and P(2), for coordinated expression of the downstream antibiotic resistance genes and an attI1 recombination site; (ii) five antibiotic gene cassettes, bla(GES-1), aac(6')Ib' (gentamicin resistance and amikacin susceptibility), dfrXVb (trimethoprim resistance), a novel chloramphenicol resistance gene (cmlA4), and aadA2 (streptomycin-spectinomycin resistance); and (iii) a 3' conserved segment consisting of qacEDelta1 and sulI. The bla(GES-1) and aadA2 gene cassettes were peculiar, since they lacked a typical 59-base element. This work identified the second class A ESBL gene of a non-TEM, non-SHV series which was located in the plasmid and integron, thus providing it additional means for its spread and its expression.

Characterization of VIM-2, a carbapenem-hydrolyzing metallo-beta-lactamase and its plasmid- and integron-borne gene from a Pseudomonas aeruginosa clinical isolate in France.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa COL-1 was identified in a blood culture of a 39-year-old-woman treated with imipenem in Marseilles, France, in 1996. This strain was resistant to beta-lactams, including ureidopenicillins, ticarcillin-clavulanic acid, cefepime, ceftazidime, imipenem, and meropenem, but remained susceptible to the monobactam aztreonam. The carbapenem-hydrolyzing beta-lactamase gene of P. aeruginosa COL-1 was cloned, sequenced, and expressed in Escherichia coli DH10B. The deduced 266-amino-acid protein was an Ambler class B beta-lactamase, with amino acid identities of 32% with B-II from Bacillus cereus; 31% with IMP-1 from several gram-negative rods in Japan, including P. aeruginosa; 27% with CcrA from Bacteroides fragilis; 24% with BlaB from Chryseobacterium meningosepticum; 24% with IND-1 from Chryseobacterium indologenes; 21% with CphA-1 from Aeromonas hydrophila; and 11% with L-1 from Stenotrophomonas maltophilia. It was most closely related to VIM-1 beta-lactamase recently reported from Italian P. aeruginosa clinical isolates (90% amino acid identity). Purified VIM-2 beta-lactamase had a pI of 5.6, a relative molecular mass of 29.7 kDa, and a broad substrate hydrolysis range, including penicillins, cephalosporins, cephamycins, oxacephamycins, and carbapenems, but not monobactams. As a metallo-beta-lactamase, its activity was zinc dependent and inhibited by EDTA (50% inhibitory concentration, 50 microM). VIM-2 conferred a resistance pattern to beta-lactams in E. coli DH10B that paralleled its in vitro hydrolytic properties, except for susceptibility to ureidopenicillins, carbapenems, and cefepime. bla(VIM-2) was located on a ca. 45-kb plasmid that in addition conferred resistance to sulfamides and that was not self-transmissible either from P. aeruginosa to E. coli or from E. coli to E. coli. bla(VIM-2) was the only gene cassette located within the variable region of a novel class 1 integron, In56, that was weakly related to the bla(VIM-1)-containing integron. VIM-2 is the second carbapenem-hydrolyzing metalloenzyme characterized from a P. aeruginosa isolate outside Japan.

Biochemical-genetic characterization and regulation of expression of an ACC-1-like chromosome-borne cephalosporinase from Hafnia alvei.

A naturally occurring AmpC beta-lactamase (cephalosporinase) gene was cloned from the Hafnia alvei 1 clinical isolate and expressed in Escherichia coli. The deduced AmpC beta-lactamase (ACC-2) had a pI of 8 and a relative molecular mass of 37 kDa and showed 50 and 47% amino acid identity with the chromosome-encoded AmpCs from Serratia marcescens and Providentia stuartii, respectively. It had 94% amino acid identity with the recently described plasmid-borne cephalosporinase ACC-1 from Klebsiella pneumoniae, suggesting the chromosomal origin of ACC-1. The hydrolysis constants (k(cat) and K(m)) showed that ACC-2 was a peculiar cephalosporinase, since it significantly hydrolyzed cefpirome. Once its gene was cloned and expressed in E. coli (pDEL-1), ACC-2 conferred resistance to ceftazidime and cefotaxime but also an uncommon reduced susceptibility to cefpirome. A divergently transcribed ampR gene with an overlapping promoter compared with ampC (bla(ACC-2)) was identified in H. alvei 1, encoding an AmpR protein that shared 64% amino acid identity with the closest AmpR protein from P. stuartii. beta-Lactamase induction experiments showed that the ampC gene was repressed in the absence of ampR and was activated when cefoxitin or imipenem was added as an inducer. From H. alvei 1 cultures that expressed an inducible-cephalosporinase phenotype, several ceftazidime- and cefpirome-cross-resistant H. alvei 1 mutants were obtained upon selection on cefpirome- or ceftazidime-containing plates, and H. alvei 1 DER, a ceftazidime-resistant mutant, stably overproduced cephalosporinase. Transformation of H. alvei 1 DER or E. coli JRG582 (ampDE mutant) harboring ampC and ampR from H. alvei 1 with a recombinant plasmid containing ampD from E. coli resulted in a decrease in the MIC of beta-lactam and recovery of an inducible phenotype for H. alvei 1 DER. Thus, AmpR and AmpD proteins may regulate biosynthesis of the H. alvei cephalosporinase similarly to other enterobacterial cephalosporinases.

Molecular and biochemical heterogeneity of class B carbapenem-hydrolyzing beta-lactamases in Chryseobacterium meningosepticum.

Although the carbapenem-hydrolyzing beta-lactamase (CHbetaL) BlaB-1 is known to be in Chryseobacterium meningosepticum NCTC 10585, a second CHbetaL gene, bla(GOB-1), was cloned from another C. meningosepticum clinical isolate (PINT). The G+C content of bla(GOB-1) (36%) indicated the likely chromosomal origin of this gene. Its expression in Escherichia coli DH10B yields a mature CHbetaL with a pI of 8.7 and a relative molecular mass of 28.2 kDa. In E. coli, GOB-1 conferred resistance to narrow-spectrum cephalosporins and reduced susceptibility to ureidopenicillins, broad-spectrum cephalosporins, and carbapenems. GOB-1 had a broad-spectrum hydrolysis profile including penicillins and cephalosporins (but not aztreonam). The catalytic efficiency for meropenem was higher than for imipenem. GOB-1 had low amino acid identity with the class B CHbetaLs, sharing 18% with the closest, L-1 from Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, and only 11% with BlaB-1. Most of the conserved amino acids that may be involved in the active site of CHbetaLs (His-101, Asp-103, His-162, and His-225) were identified in GOB-1. Sequence heterogeneity was found for GOB-1-like and BlaB-1-like beta-lactamases, having 90 to 100% and 86 to 100% amino acid identity, respectively, among 10 unrelated C. meningosepticum isolates. Each isolate had a GOB-1-like and a BlaB-1-like gene. The same combination of GOB-1-like and BlaB-1-like beta-lactamases was not found in two different isolates. C. meningosepticum is a bacterial species with two types of unrelated chromosome-borne class B CHbetaLs that can be expressed in E. coli and, thus, may represent a clinical threat if spread in gram-negative aerobes.

Biochemical-genetic characterization and distribution of OXA-22, a chromosomal and inducible class D beta-lactamase from Ralstonia (Pseudomonas) pickettii.

From genomic DNA of Ralstonia pickettii isolate PIC-1, a beta-lactamase gene was cloned that encodes the oxacillinase OXA-22. It differs from known oxacillinases, being most closely related to OXA-9 (38% amino acid identity). The hydrolytic spectrum of OXA-22 is limited mostly to benzylpenicillin, cloxacillin, and restricted-spectrum cephalosporins. OXA-22-like genes were identified as single chromosomal copies in five other R. pickettii clinical isolates. The expression of OXA-22-like beta-lactamases was inducible in R. pickettii.

Molecular characterisation of In51, a class 1 integron containing a novel aminoglycoside adenylyltransferase gene cassette, aadA6, in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Polymerase chain reaction-amplification and subsequent sequencing of the variable region of a novel integron, In51, from Pseudomonas aeruginosa revealed the presence of a novel aminoglycoside adenylyltransferase gene, aadA6, together with an open reading frame of unknown function, orfD. AADA6 enzyme has only 75% amino acid identity with AADA1 and is able to confer high level resistance to streptomycin and spectinomycin in Escherichia coli.

Lack of hotspot targets: a constraint for IS30 transposition in Salmonella.

IS30 is an insertion element common in E. coli strains but rare or absent in Salmonella. Transfer of the IS30-flanked transposon Tn2700 to Salmonella typhimurium was assayed using standard delivery procedures of bacterial genetics (conjugation and transduction). Tn2700 'hops' were rare and required transposase overproduction, suggesting the existence of host constraints for IS30 activity. Sequencing of three Tn2700 insertions in the genome of S. typhimurium revealed that the transposon had been inserted into sites with a low homology to the IS30 consensus target, suggesting that inefficient Tn2700 transposition to the Salmonella genome might be caused by a lack of hotspot targets. This view was confirmed by the introduction of an IS30 'hot target sequence', whose sole presence permitted Tn2700 transposition without transposase overproduction. Detection of IS30-induced DNA rearrangements in S. typhimurium provided further evidence that the element undergoes similar activities in E. coli and S. typhimurium. Thus, hotspot absence may be the main (if not the only) limitation for IS30 activity in the latter species. If these observations faithfully reproduce the scenario of natural populations, establishment of IS30 in the Salmonella genome may have been prevented by a lack of DNA sequences closely related to the unusually long (24 bp) IS30 consensus target.

Role of ser-237 in the substrate specificity of the carbapenem-hydrolyzing class A beta-lactamase Sme-1.

The role of the serine residue found at position 237 in the carbapenemase Sme-1 has been investigated by constructing a mutant in which Ser-237 was replaced by an alanine. The S237A mutant showed a catalytic behavior against penicillins and aztreonam very similar to that of Sme-1. By contrast, S237A was characterized by a reduced catalytic efficiency against cephems, such as cephalothin and cephaloridine. In addition, the weak activity of Sme-1 against the cephamycin cefoxitin was hardly detectable with the mutant enzyme. Finally, the Ser-237-->Ala mutation resulted in a marked decrease in catalytic activity against imipenem, showing that Ser-237 contributes to the carbapenemase activity of the class A beta-lactamase Sme-1.

Molecular characterization of In50, a class 1 integron encoding the gene for the extended-spectrum beta-lactamase VEB-1 in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

A clinical isolate of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, JES, was resistant to extended-spectrum cephalosporins with a marked synergistic effect with clavulanic acid on a routine antibiogram. Preliminary PCR analysis revealed the presence of blaVEB-1, an integron-located gene encoding an extended-spectrum beta-lactamase previously identified in Escherichia coli MG-1. Using class 1 integron primers and blaVEB-1 intragenic primers, the insert region of the blaVEB-1 containing integron along with some flanking sequence from P. aeruginosa JES was amplified and subsequently sequenced. In50 contains within its variable region, in addition to qacE delta 1 and sull genes commonly found in class 1 integrons, two gene cassettes, veb1 and aadB. In50 is peculiar since its attI1 site is interrupted by two novel insertion sequences, IS1999 and IS2000. P. aeruginosa JES and Escherichia coli MG-1 strains were isolated from patients previously hospitalized in south east Asian countries. The finding of blaVEB-1 in these strains and on different integrons underlines the interspecies spread of this integron-located extended-spectrum beta-lactamase gene.

Molecular characterization of a carbapenem-hydrolyzing beta-lactamase from Chryseobacterium (Flavobacterium) indologenes.

Chryseobacterium (Flavobacterium) indologenes 001 clinical strain was resistant to several beta-lactam classes including carbapenems. Shotgun cloning experiments of Sau3AI restricted genomic DNA of C. indologenes 001 into pBKCMV cloning vector followed by transformation into Escherichia coli DH10B gave one recombinant plasmid possessing a 4.2-kb DNA insert. It encoded a pI 7.2 beta-lactamase of 239 amino acids (IND-1) which is a metallo-enzyme with a broad spectrum beta-lactam hydrolysis profile. This class B carbapenem-hydrolyzing beta-lactamase shares the highest identity (43%) with BlaB from C. meningosepticum, thus showing heterogeneity of carbapenem-hydrolyzing beta-lactamases in Chryseobacterium spp.

Molecular and biochemical characterization of VEB-1, a novel class A extended-spectrum beta-lactamase encoded by an Escherichia coli integron gene.

A clinical isolate, Escherichia coli MG-1, isolated from a 4-month-old Vietnamese orphan child, produced a beta-lactamase conferring resistance to extended-spectrum cephalosporins and aztreonam. In a disk diffusion test, a typical synergistic effect between ceftazidime or aztreonam and clavulanic acid was observed along with an unusual synergy between cefoxitin and cefuroxime. The gene for VEB-1 (Vietnamese extended-spectrum beta-lactamase) was cloned and expressed in E. coli JM109. The recombinant plasmid pRLT1 produced a beta-lactamase with a pI of 5.35 and conferred high-level resistance to extended-spectrum (or oxyimino) cephalosporins and to aztreonam. Vmax values for extended-spectrum cephalosporins were uncommonly high, while the affinity of the enzyme for ceftazidime and aztreonam was relatively low. blaVEB-1 showed significant homology at the DNA level with only blaPER-1 and blaPER-2. Analysis of the deduced protein sequence showed that VEB-1 is a class A penicillinase having very low levels of homology with any other known beta-lactamases. The highest percentage of amino acid identity was 38% with PER-1 or PER-2, two uncommon class A extended-spectrum enzymes. Exploration of the genetic environment of blaVEB-1 revealed the presence of gene cassette features, i.e., (i) a 59-base element associated with blaVEB-1; (ii) a second 59-base element just upstream of blaVEB-1, likely belonging to the aacA1-orfG gene cassette; (iii) two core sites (GTTRRRY) on both sides of blaVEB-1; and (iv) a second antibiotic resistance gene 3' of blaVEB-1, aadB. blaVEB-1 may therefore be the first class A extended-spectrum beta-lactamase that is part of a gene cassette, which itself is likely to be located on a class 1 integron, as sulfamide resistance may indicate. Furthermore, blaVEB-1 is encoded on a large (> 100-kb) transferable plasmid found in a Klebsiella pneumoniae MG-2 isolated at the same time from the same patient, indicating a horizontal gene transfer.

Cloning, sequence analyses, expression, and distribution of ampC-ampR from Morganella morganii clinical isolates.

Shotgun cloning experiments with restriction enzyme-digested genomic DNA from Morganella morganii 1, which expresses high levels of cephalosporinase, into the pBKCMV cloning vector gave a recombinant plasmid, pPON-1, which encoded four entire genes: ampC, ampR, an hybF family gene, and orf-1 of unknown function. The deduced AmpC beta-lactamase of pI 7.6 shared structural and functional homologies with AmpC from Citrobacter freundii, Escherichia coli, Yersinia enterocolitica, Enterobacter cloacae, and Serratia marcescens. The overlapping promoter organization of ampC and ampR, although much shorter in M. morganii than in the other enterobacterial species, suggested similar AmpR regulatory properties. The MICs of beta-lactams for E. coli MC4100 (ampC mutant) harboring recombinant plasmid pACYC184 containing either ampC and ampR (pAC-1) or ampC (pAC-2) and induction experiments showed that the ampC gene of M. morganii 1 was repressed in the presence of ampR and was activated when a beta-lactam inducer was added. Moreover, transformation of M. morganii 1 or of E. coli JRG582 (delta ampDE) harboring ampC and ampR with a recombinant plasmid containing ampD from E. cloacae resulted in a decrease in the beta-lactam MICs and an inducible phenotype for M. morganii 1, thus underlining the role of an AmpD-like protein in the regulation of the M. morganii cephalosporinase. Fifteen other M. morganii clinical isolates with phenotypes of either low-level inducible cephalosporinase expression or high-level constitutive cephalosporinase expression harbored the same ampC-ampR organization, with the hybF and orf-1 genes surrounding them; the organization of these genes thus differed from those of ampC-ampR genes in C. freundii and E. cloacae, which are located downstream from the fumarate operon. Finally, an identical AmpC beta-lactamase (DHA-1) was recently identified as being plasmid encoded in Salmonella enteritidis, and this is confirmatory evidence of a chromosomal origin of the plasmid-mediated cephalosporinases.

Integron- and carbenicillinase-mediated reduced susceptibility to amoxicillin-clavulanic acid in isolates of multidrug-resistant Salmonella enterica serotype typhimurium DT104 from French patients.

Fifty-seven Salmonella enterica serotype Typhimurium (S. typhimurium) isolates were collected from human patients in two French hospitals, Hôpital Antoine Béclère (Clamart, France) and Hôpital Bicêtre (Le Kremlin-Bicêtre, France), between 1996 and 1997. Thirty of them (52 percent) were resistant to amino-, carbeni-, and ureidopenicillins, had reduced susceptibility to amoxicillin-clavulanic acid, were susceptible to cephalothin, and were resistant to sulfonamides, streptomycin, chloramphenicol, and tetracyclines. All these strains possessed a blaPSE-1-like gene and were of phage type DT104. Ten of them were studied in more detail, which revealed that blaPSE-1 is located on the variable region of a class 1 integron. This integron was found to be chromosomally located, as was another class 1 integron containing aadA2, a streptomycin-spectinomycin resistance gene. The reduced susceptibility to amoxicillin-clavulanic acid (and to ticarcillin-clavulanic acid) may result from the high level of hydrolysis of the beta-lactam rather than to the clavulanic acid resistance properties of PSE-1 in these clonally related S. typhimurium isolates.

An SHV-derived extended-spectrum beta-lactamase in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

A clinical isolate of Pseudomonas aeruginosa RP-1 produced the extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) SHV-2a. Its gene was expressed from a composite promoter made of the -35 region derived from the left inverted repeat of IS26 and the -10 region from the blaSHV-2a promoter itself. The DNA sequences immediately surrounding blaSHV-2a were homologous to plasmid pMPA2a from Klebsiella pneumoniae KpZU-3, while further away and 3' to the blaSHV-2a gene, a sequence corresponding to the left end of Tn1721 was detected, thus indicating a likely enterobacterial origin of this ESBL gene.

Biochemical-genetic analysis and distribution of FAR-1, a class A beta-lactamase from Nocardia farcinica.

From genomic DNA of the clinical isolate Nocardia farcinica VIC, a 1. 6-kb Sau3AI fragment was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli JM109. The recombinant strain expressed a beta-lactamase (pI, 4.6), FAR-1, which conferred high levels of resistance to amoxicillin, piperacillin, ticarcillin, and cephalothin. The hydrolysis constants (kcat, Km, Ki, and 50% inhibitory concentration) confirmed the MIC results and showed that FAR-1 activity is inhibited by clavulanic acid and at a low level by tazobactam and sulbactam. Moreover, FAR-1 beta-lactamase hydrolyzes aztreonam (at a low level) without significant activity against ceftazidime, cefotaxime and imipenem. FAR-1 mature protein of molecular mass ca 32 kDa, has less than 60% amino acid identity with any other class A beta-lactamases, being most closely related to PEN-A from Burkholderia cepacia (52%). A blaFAR-1-like gene was found in all studied N. farcinica strains, underlining the constitutive origin of this gene.

OXA-type beta-lactamases.

The OXA-type (oxacillin-hydrolysing) enzymes are widespread and have been mostly described in Enterobacteriaceae and in P. aeruginosa. They usually confer resistance to amino- and ureidopenicillin and possess high-level hydrolytic activity against cloxacillin, oxacillin, and methicillin. Their activities are weakly inhibited by clavulanic acid but sodium chloride (NaCl) possesses a strong inhibition activity. Oxacillin-hydrolysing b-lactamases belong to Ambler class D and thus possess an active serine site as classes A and C b-lactamases. Overall amino-acid identities between class D and class A or class C b-lactamases is about 16%. Until now, 24 Ambler class D enzymes, named OXA-1 to OXA-22, AmpS and LCR-1, have been characterised, either by sequence and/or by biochemical analyses, but for none of them a three dimensional structure is yet available. While some oxacillinases present a significant degree of amino-acid identity (for example, OXA-1 and OXA-4; OXA-10 (PSE-2) derivatives; OXA-2 and OXA-3), most of them are only weakly related (20% to 30% amino-acid identity). Oxacillinases usually display a restricted-spectrum phenotype. However extension of their spectrum towards oxyimino cephalosporins and/or imipenem has recently been observed mostly as a consequence of point mutations in OXA-2 or OXA-10 derivatives. Their frequent plasmid- and/or integron-location provide them a mean for a wide diffusion.

Role of residues 104, 164, 166, 238 and 240 in the substrate profile of PER-1 beta-lactamase hydrolysing third-generation cephalosporins.

The class A beta-lactamase PER-1, which displays 26% identity with the TEM-type extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs), catalyses the hydrolysis of oxyimino-beta-lactams such as cefotaxime (CTX), ceftazidime (CAZ) and aztreonam (AZT). Molecular modelling was used to identify in PER-1 the amino acid residues corresponding to those found at positions 104, 164, 238 and 240 in the TEM-type ESBLs, which are critical for hydrolysis of oxyimino-beta-lactams. The function of these residues in PER-1 was assessed by site-directed mutagenesis. In this enzyme, residue 104 could be either a glutamine, an asparagine or a threonine. The Gln-->Gly mutation did not significantly affect the catalytic efficiency, while Asn-->Gly and Thr-->Glu resulted in a marked decrease in catalytic activity, probably due to the alteration of a hydrogen bond network connecting the putative Asn-104 residue to Asn-132 and Glu-166. Replacement of Ala-164 by Arg in PER-1 resulted in a mutant with no detectable activity, thus suggesting that Ala-164 is important for catalysis and stability of PER-1. Conversely, Ser-238-->Gly and Gly-240-->Glu had little effect on kcat and Km values. Finally, the replacement of the catalytic residue Glu-166 by an alanine resulted in a complete loss of activity for CTX and a marked decrease of kcat for CAZ and AZT. These results suggest that Glu-166 is an important residue in PER-1. However, residues other than Glu-166 could contribute in maintaining residual activity towards oxyimino-beta-lactams in the Ala-166 mutant.
