Dissemination of blaNDM, which is carried on the IncX3 plasmid, among Enterobacterales has been reported worldwide. In particular, blaNDM-5-carrying IncX3 plasmids can spread among several hosts, facilitating their dissemination. Other variants, such as blaNDM-17-, blaNDM-19-, blaNDM-20-, blaNDM-21-, and blaNDM-33-carrying IncX3 plasmids, have also been reported. Here, we characterized, using whole-genome sequencing (WGS), a blaNDM-16b-carrying IncX3 plasmid harbored by Escherichia coli strain TA8571, which was isolated from a urine specimen of a hospital inpatient in Tokyo, Japan. The blaNDM-16b differed in sequence from blaNDM-5 (C > T at site 698, resulting in an Ala233Val substitution). This blaNDM-16b-carrying IncX3 plasmid (pTMTA8571-1) is 46,161 bp in length and transferred via conjugation. Transconjugants showed high resistance to 尾-lactam antimicrobials (except for aztreonam). Because pTMTA8571-1, which carries the Tn125-related region containing blaNDM and conjugative transfer genes, was similar to the previously reported IncX3 plasmids, we performed phylogenetic anal. based on the sequence of 34 shared genes in 142 blaNDM-carrying IncX3 plasmids (22,846/46,923 bp). Comparative anal. of the shared genes revealed short branches on the phylogenetic tree (average of 1.08 nucleotide substitutions per shared genes), but each blaNDM variant was divided into sep. groups, and the structure of the tree correlated with the flowchart of blaNDM nucleotide substitutions. The blaNDM-carrying IncX3 plasmids may thereby have evolved from the same ancestral plasmid with subsequent mutation of the blaNDM. Therefore, pTMTA8571-1 likely emerged from a blaNDM-5-carrying IncX3 plasmid. This study suggested that the spread of blaNDM-carrying IncX3 plasmids may be a hotbed for the emergence of novel variants of blaNDM. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, 2-((((Z)-1-(2-Aminothiazol-4-yl)-2-(((2S,3S)-2-methyl-4-oxo-1-sulfoazetidin-3-yl)amino)-2-oxoethylidene)amino)oxy)-2-methylpropanoic acid (cas: 78110-38-0Formula: C13H17N5O8S2).
2-((((Z)-1-(2-Aminothiazol-4-yl)-2-(((2S,3S)-2-methyl-4-oxo-1-sulfoazetidin-3-yl)amino)-2-oxoethylidene)amino)oxy)-2-methylpropanoic acid (cas: 78110-38-0) belongs to thiazole derivatives. Thiazoles in peptides or their ability to bind proteins, DNA and RNA has led to many synthetic studies and new applications. Thiazole sulfonation occurs only under forcing conditions: the action of oleum at 250 掳C for 3 hours in the presence of mercury(II) sulfate leads to 65% formation of 5-thiazole sulfonic acid.Formula: C13H17N5O8S2
