Molecular identification of aminoglycoside-modifying enzymes in clinical isolates of Escherichia coli resistant to amoxicillin/clavulanic acid isolated in Spain

Highlights • A remarkable diversity of aminoglycoside-resistant Escherichia coli was found. • Fifteen aminoglycoside-modifying enzyme (AME) patterns showed different levels of aminoglycoside resistance. • aac(6 ′ )-Ib was the most prevalent AME gene and was associated with CTX-M-15. • The ant(2 ″ )-...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • A remarkable diversity of aminoglycoside-resistant Escherichia coli was found. • Fifteen aminoglycoside-modifying enzyme (AME) patterns showed different levels of aminoglycoside resistance. • aac(6 ′ )-Ib was the most prevalent AME gene and was associated with CTX-M-15. • The ant(2 ″ )-Ia gene was usually associated with OXA-1. • The expected phenotypes and genotypes did not match in 35.4% of isolates.
