Genetic and biochemical characterization of staphylococci occurring in Novosibirsk, Russia

Abstract: Staphylococci are capable of penetrating many hu man tissues and organs, causing superficial and deep purulent infections, respiratory and urinary tract in fections, food poisoning and intoxication. Last years, coagulasenegative staphylococci were the cause of infection in many cases. Infectious agents, namely Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus haemolyticus, and Staphylococcus hominis, were detected more often as nosocomial infections. A particular danger of these infections is a high virulence and pat… Show more

“…Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), which causes a wide variety of pathologies, remains one of the most harmful bacteria, and has been researched for over 100 years. The notorious “reputation” of S. aureus is primarily based on its resistance to various groups of conventional antibiotics [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ], and the need to obtain a new drugs which effectively destroy S. aureus and do not cause the development of drug resistance is among the top priorities for effective control of the infection [ 5 , 6 ]. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are considered as promising tool to fight multidrug-resistant bacteria.…”

“…Most studies of staphylococci in Russia focused on the monitoring of antibiotic resistant isolates in hospitals and were often limited to characterizing only S. aureus [11][12][13][14][15]. Only a few studies of environmental, veterinary, and community-associated staphylococci in Russia have been published [16,17]. Data on genomes, virulence factors (VF), and antibiotic resistance genes (ARG) of staphylococci found in Russia are still limited, especially in Siberian Russia, which is located between the Far Eastern and European regions.…”

“…Признаки устойчивости к антимикробным агентам кодируются генами, которые могут переноситься на бактериальной хромосоме, плазмидах, транспозонах или на генных кассетах, включенных в интегроны (15)(16)(17). У штаммов S. aureus показано присутствие генов устойчивости rpoB, blaZ, mecA (18), aacA-D, tetK, tetM, ermA (19,20), msrA (21), linA, vatA, vatB, dfrA, gyrA, grlA, cat1 к антибиотикам групп ансамицины, пенициллины, аминогликозидам, тетрациклинам, макролид-линкозамид-стрептограминам В, линкозамидам, стрептограминамам и фторхинолонамам (22,23). Устойчивые к пенициллину изоляты несут плазмидный ген blaZ, который кодирует -лактамазный фермент, называемый пенициллиназой (24,25).…”
