The extensive spread of colistin resistance represents an enormous concern to infectious disease treatment, because colistin is one of the few effective antibiotics against multidrug-resistant bacterial infections, including carbapenem-resistant bacteria. This dissemination can be caused by plasmid transfer containing the colistin resistance gene mcr. Therefore, the plasmid host range affects horizontal gene transfer. This study reports a fusion plasmid of different incompatibility types, which could easily expand the plasmid host range, allowing widespread mcrprevalence in the microbial community. |
