“…Many mobile genetic elements, including plasmids, integrons, insertion sequences and transposons (Partridge et al, 2018), as well as SXT/R391 integrative conjugative elements (ICEs) and genomic islands (such as Salmonella/Proteus genomic islands, SGI/PGI), are found to mediate horizontal transfer of various antimicrobial resistance genes in P. mirabilis (Cummins et al, 2020;He et al, 2021). For example, the New Delhi metallo-βlactamase gene bla NDM-1 was sporadically found in P. mirabilis, and was located on plasmids (Bitar et al, 2020), PGI1 and SGI1 (Girlich et al, 2015;Yang et al, 2021). The multiresistance gene cfr that encodes an RNA methyltransferase conferring resistance to phenicols, lincosamides, oxazolidinones, pleuromutilins and streptogramin A (Shen et al, 2013), as well as the plasmidencoding RND efflux pump gene cluster tmexCD3-toprJ3 that reduces the sensitivity of multiple antimicrobials including tigecycline (Lv et al, 2020), were found to be located on SXT/ R391 ICEs (Wang et al, 2021b;Song et al, 2022).…”
