Özet
The aims of this study were to investigate the plasmid-mediated colistin resistance genes (mcr-1, mcr-2, mcr-3, mcr-4, and mcr-5), phenotypic colistin resistance in Escherichia coli O157:H7(+)/H7(-) strains isolated from cattle and sheep, and whole-genome sequence (WGS) analysis of colistin-resistant sorbitol fermentative E. coli O157:H7. According to the results, 5 of the 49 isolates were found to harbor mcr-2 and/or mcr-3 genes. Three isolates, including a sorbitol fermentative E. coli O157:H7, were found phenotypically resistant to colistin with a minimum inhibitory concentration value of 128 mu g/mL. The genome of sorbitol fermentative E. coli O157:H7 did not show 100% similarity to any of the other genome sequences found in the universal genome database. It has also been determined that this isolate carried 62 different antimicrobial resistance genes. This is the first report of plasmid-mediated mcr-2 and mcr-3 genes carrying E. coli O157:H7 from cattle and sheep isolates and WGS of a colistin-resistant sorbitol fermentative E. coli O157:H7. Findings of this study indicate that cattle and sheep can be an important source of colistin resistance in E. coli O157:H7, and slaughterhouse wastewater might be a significant route for dissemination of the plasmid-mediated colistin genes. Therefore, the use of colistin in veterinary medicine should be restricted to reduce the development of resistance. Also it may be necessary to review the non-sorbitol fermentation-based isolation protocol for not missing the sorbitol fermentative E. coli O157:H7 in epidemiological studies.
