About Acinetobacter baumannii
INTRODUCTION
• It´s an aerobic Gram-negative bacterium.
• It is estimated that up to 10% of nosocomial
infections in the USA and 2% in Europe are
caused by this pathogen, with these frequencies
almost doubling in Asia and the Middle East.
• 45% of A. baumanii exhibit multidrug resistance
(MDR) globally.
• It´s considered a priority pathogen by WHO.
https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acinetobacter_baumannii
INTRODUCTION
Multidrug Resistance (MDR)
A microorganism it´s considered multiresistant when it´s
shows resistance to 3 different categories of antimicrobial
drugs.
They do it via spontaneous mutation or DNA transfer.
• Cell envelope as a barrier
• Multidrug efflux systems
• Mutations in genes coding for porins and antibiotic
targets
• Enzymes that degrade/inactivate antibiotics.
OBJECTIVE
To develop a scar-free
genome-editing tool
suitable for chromosomal
and plasmid modifications in
MDR A. baumannii AB5075
METHODS
Triparental mating - PCR
Plasmid construction
https://es.khanacademy.org/science/ap-biology/gene-expression-and-
regulation/biotechnology/a/overview-dna-cloning
The gene is inserted into a
circular piece of DNA
(plasmid). Insertion is done
with enzymes, resulting in a
recombinant DNA
molecule, which is DNA
assembled from fragments
from multiple sources.
PCR involves using short
pieces of synthetic DNA,
called primers, to select a
segment of the genome to be
amplified, and then multiple
DNA synthesis sessions to
amplify that segment.
https://www.genome.gov/es/genetics-glossary/Reaccion-en-cadena-de-la-polimerasa
METHODS
Antibiotic disc diffusion
assay (DDA)
MIC determination
Used to determine the
susceptibility of clinical isolates of
bacteria to different antibiotics
Is the lowest concentration of an
antimicrobial that will inhibit the
visible growth of a microorganism
after overnight incubation
RESULTS
RESULTS
Vila J, Martí S, Sánchez-Céspedes J. Porins
Whereas there are reports about the role
of CraA in chloramphenicol resistance,
the RI2-encoded CmlA5 has only been
annotated as a chloramphenicol efflux
pump based on homology
Agree
Anderson SE, Sherman EX, Weiss DS Homologous recombination between the
two integrase regions has been
documented before, amplifying the copy
number of RI2 and producing
aminoglycoside heteroresistance.
Agree
Foong WE, Tam HK, Crames JJ Apart from its role in chloramphenicol
resistance,35A. baumannii CraA was
recently shown to have a broader
substrate range, including other
chloramphenicol derivates and biocides,
such as chlorhexidine, benzalkonium and
dequalinium
Agree
DISCUSSION
CONCLUSSIONS
- Molecular biology is important for
the study of microorganisms that
can be a threat to the hospital
environment and ultimately the
treatment of patients.
- It is important that studies
continue with molecular biology
methods to understand
antimicrobial resistance
mechanisms and how to
overcome them to avoid possible
incurable mutations.
