Functional and evolutionary insights into the emerging tet(X4)-carrying non-O1/O139 Vibrio cholerae from retail pork
The tigecycline resistance gene tet(X4) is prevalent in Enterobacteriaceae, particularly in Escherichia coli. To our knowledge, no study has reported the dissemination dynamics of tet(X4) in Vibrio spp. Herein, we isolated and characterized a first tet(X4)-positive non-O1/O139 Vibrio cholerae isolate from retail pork. Genomic sequencing identified a novel tet(X4) variant in the V. cholerae…
