The Role Of Gyra And Parc Mutations In Fluoroquinolones

Di: Everly

The parC mutations were able to transform Streptococcus pneumoniae to ciprofloxacin resistance, while the gyrA mutations transformed S. pneumoniae only when mutations in parC

The Fluoroquinolones: An Update for the Clinical Microbiologist

The main mechanism is to change the effect of two enzymes that open the DNA helix – the enzyme DNA gyrase (gyrA) and the topoisomerase IV (parC). In addition, mutations

The frequency of amino acid and nucleotide change in fluoroquinolone ...

According to previous reports, mutations in the gyrB and parE genes confer low-level resistance and are less frequently observed [7], [8].The objective of this study was to

The role of gyrA and parC mutations in fluoroquinolones-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates from Iran. Sign in | Create an account. https://orcid.org. Europe PMC.

We determined partial sequences of the gyrA and parC genes of Citrobacter freundii type strain, and then examined 38 C. freundii clinical strains isolated from patients with

These resistance mutations have most commonly been localized to the amino terminal domains of GyrA (residues 67 to 106 for Escherichia coli numbering) or ParC (residues 63 to 102) and are

Alterations of gyrA, gyrB, and parC and Activity of Efflux

However, in K. pneumoniae isolates a relationship between mutations in gyrA and parC and quinolone resistance has not been well established [14].Except for a few studies from

These findings showed that in P. aeruginosa, gyrA was the primary target for fluoroquinolone and additional mutation in parC led to highly resistant isolates.

Keywords: Fluoroquinolones, Antimicrobial resistance (AMR), Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Mutations in the gyrA, parC, porB and mtrR genes and proteins were determined using Bioedit

It investigates the role of specific resistance genes and mutations in contributing to this resistance. In addition, the effects of carbonyl cyanide 3-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP)

Resistance to fluoroquinolone is mediated primarily through spontaneous mutations of genes in the quinolone resistance-determining region (QRDR), namely, DNA gyrase and

The presence of chromosomal mutations was evaluated based on the criteria that one single chromosomal mutation in the gyrA gene confers low-level resistance to quinolones,

In the present study, among the 22 strains resistant to all three test fluoroquinolones, 4 had no mutations on gyrA or parC. These results show that the lack of gyrA

Mechanisms of drug resistance: quinolone resistance

Mutations in the quinolone resistance-determining regions (QRDRs) of gyrA, gyrB, parC, and parE have been characterized among the 232 isolates of ciprofloxacin (CIP)

Mutations in parC for laboratory strain M. hominis H34 appeared at lower antibiotic concentrations than in gyrA. All mutations in gyr A were associated with mutations in parC.

Illustration of a point mutation in the QRDR of gyrA and parC in ...

Resistance to Fluoroquinolones in Pseudomonas aeruginosa from Human, Animal, mutations in the QRDR of GyrA and ParC have the highest effect on fluoroquinolone resistance levels. In

The resistance to fluoroquinolones is mostly caused by mutations targeting the QRDR of gyrA, and parC of DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV. 49 Sequencing of gyrA and

We have found mutations in the parC and gyrA genes that produce amino acid substitutions in equivalent residues: Ser-79 of ParC and Ser-81 of GyrA. These residue positions have been

These findings showed that in P. aeruginosa, gyrA was the primary target for fluoroquinolone and additional mutation in parC led to highly resistant isolates.

Resistance to Fluoroquinolones in

Alterations in the target proteins of fluoroquinolones, especially in GyrA and ParC, are known to cause resistance. Here, we investigated environmental Escherichia communities to explore the possible link between

3.2. MIC for fluoroquinolone in the QRDR mutants. Group I mutants had mutations in gyrA and gyrB and showed resistance to four fluoroquinolones, but their MIC was ≤4 μg/mL. Group II

Several mutations in quinolone-resistance-determining regions (QRDRs) were detected in all five delafloxacin-resistant P. aeruginosa strains as follows: gyrA Thr83Ile and

We have analyzed by gene amplification and sequencing mutations in the quinolone resistance-determining regions of the gyrA, gyrB, and parC genes of fluoroquinolone-resistant

The major mechanism of resistance to fluoroquinolones forPseudomonas aeruginosa is the modification of type II topoisomerases (DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV).

Mutations in the genes for the subunits GyrA and ParC of the target enzymes DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV are important mechanisms of resistance in quinolone-resistant bacteria,

The problem of Pseudomonas aeruginosa resistance to fluoroquinolones is of growing concern in hospitals. The major mechanism of the resistance of this bacterium to

Our results indicated that 90% of isolates have at least one mutation in QRDR of gyrA or parC genes, thus the frequency of mutations was very significant and alarming in our

Background: Phenotypic fluoroquinolone resistance was first reported in Western Kenya in 2009 and later in Coastal Kenya and Nairobi. Until recently gonococcal

20 (31.25%) had a mutation (Thr-83 →Ile) in gyrA alone (group I). A double mutation in gyrA (Thr-83 → Ile and Asp-87 → Asn) was detected in 5 of 64 isolates. Amino acid alteration in the

In addition to single mutation in gyrA, OmpK35 porin loss can also be the first step for developing fluoroquinolone resistance. No strain possesses a parC mutation without the simultaneous

However, the isolates with two mutation in gyrA regardless of whether there was a mutation in parC showed high MIC for the three fluoroquinolones (CIP, 0.75 to 32 <or=microg/ml; ENO, 3
