ABSTRACT We report that carbapenem resistance developed in an extensively drug-resistant Salmonella enterica serovar Agona strain during antimicrobial therapy and in an AmpC β-lactamase-producing S. Infantis strain. Whole-genome sequence analysis indicated that carbapenem resistance in the S. Agona strain was associated with the insertion of a 160-kb IS15DI composite transposon in ompC_378, which encodes a porin consisting of 378 amino acids, along with a 397-bp deletion in the ompD. The transposon harbored 12 resistance genes including bla CTX-M-55 and an efflux pump regulatory gene, ramAp. Carbapenem resistance in the bla CMY-2-carrying S. Infantis strain was linked to the insertion of a 22,905-bp segment located 10 bp upstream of the ompC_378 coding sequence, as well as a 254-bp deletion in ompD. Our findings indicate that the loss of both ompC_378 and ompD is necessary for carbapenem resistance in extended-spectrum β-lactamase and AmpC β-lactamase-producing Salmonella strains. IMPORTANCE Carbapenem resistance arising from the loss of porins is commonly observed in extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) and AmpC β-lactamase-producing strains of certain Enterobacteriaceae genera, including Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. However, this resistance mechanism is rarely reported in the Salmonella genus. To address this knowledge gap, our study offers genetic evidence demonstrating that the loss of two specific porins (OmpC_378 and OmpD) is crucial for the development of carbapenem resistance in Salmonella ESBL and AmpC β-lactamase-producing strains. Furthermore, our findings reveal that most Salmonella serovars carry seven porin parathologs, with OmpC_378 and OmpD being the key porins involved in the development of carbapenem resistance in Salmonella strains. |
