Bacterial carbapenem resistance blaOXA-48-like gene
Active
Description
The existence of OXA-48 like class D beta-lactamases has been increasing in enterobacter species organisms. The "OXA-like" groups of genes are molecularly similar to and thought to evolve from the original gene for which the group is named. For example, as of 2014 the blaOXA-23-like group included 19 genes, including including blaOXA-23, -27, -49, and -73. PMID: 24696435. The OXA-48 like class D beta-lactamase enzymes are highly resistant to penicillins and beta lactamase inhibitors and show a low resistance to carbapenems. These varied OXA-48-like beta-lactamases have been identified worldwide, including OXA-48-like producing Klebsiella pneumoniae with resistance to multiple drugs that emerged in Jordanian hospitals. Reports have shown that organisms producing OXA-48 like enzymes are either not resistant to broad-spectrum cephalosporins or show a decreased susceptibility to carbapenemase drugs. Identifying them can be a challenge. Screening and detection is required to prevent and control dissemination. PMID: 22499996 PMID: 26993738 Source: Regenstrief LOINC
