Plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance conferred by qnrS1 in Salmonella enterica serovar Virchow isolated from Turkish food of avian origin

Abstract: This is the first study describing the presence of qnrS1 genes in bacterial isolates from Turkey. The pRQ2006 plasmid seems to be more related to the S. flexneri 2b qnrS1 plasmid pAH0376 than to the Salmonella qnrS1-carrying plasmids pINF5 and TPqnrS-2.

“…In another study from Turkey, Nazik et al (2009) reported qnr genes in Enterobacter spp., E. coli and K. pneumoniae. In agreement with previous studies (Kehrenberg et al 2006;Avsaroglu et al 2007), our results confirmed the presence of qnrS gene associated with fluoroquinolone resistance in two different Salmonella isolates from Turkey. In contrast, Yu et al (2011), reported that all Salmonella isolates were negative for qnr genes, whereas a high prevalence (37.1%) of aac(6')-Ib-cr was found.…”

“…Because of the widespread usage of antimicrobial agents in both developed and developing countries, antibiotic resistance in some types of Salmonella infections is increasing. Increasing antimicrobial resistance in non-typhoid Salmonella species has been a serious problem for public health [11,12]. Antibiotic resistance profiles of food-originated DMC coded 13 S. Infantis isolates, determined in the present study are compatible with the previous findings [13][14][15].…”

“…Resistance genes commonly present in Shigella spp. and Enterobacteriaceae, including the SRL, Tn7, gyrA, dfrA5, bla CTX-M , bla TEM , bla SHV , bla CMY , qnr, qepA, and aac(6=)-Ib-cr, were selected as references (9,(28)(29)(30)(31)) (see Table S1 in the supplemental material). The antibiotic resistance genes were searched using BLASTn, with an E value of 1 ϫ 10 Ϫ15 as the cutoff value for a significant match, based on the data generated by whole-genome sequencing.…”
