【目的】探讨从养殖场动物、环境和饲养员分离的大肠杆菌的gyrA和paTC基因突变特征。【方法】用琼脂稀释法测定环丙沙星和恩诺沙星对菌株的最小抑菌浓度。PCR扩增gyTA和parC基因的喹诺酮耐药决定区,扩增的片段长度分别为525bp和487bp,PCR产物直接测序。【结果】在63株突变株中,在GyrA亚基发生的氨基酸替代有Ser83→Leu(62株)和Asp87→Asn(52株)、Asp87→Tyr(2株)、Asp87→HiS(2株);ParC亚基的氨基酸替代有Ser80→Ile(47株)、Ser80→Arg(2株)和Glu84→Val(3株)、Glu84→Lys(4株)、Glu84→G1y(5株)、Glu84→Ala(1株)。环丙沙星对菌株的MIC小于0.125μg·ml^-1时,gyrA和ParC亚基均没有任何变异;环丙沙星的MIC为0.125~0.25μg·ml^-1时,GyrA亚基出现单一氨基酸替代;环丙沙星的MIC为0.5~32μg·ml^-1时,出现GyrA83位和87位双替代或者GyrA83和ParC80位双替代;环丙沙星的MIC为4~128μg·ml^-1,发生GyrA双替代和ParC单替代;环丙沙星的)dIC在16~128μg·ml^-1,发生GyrA双替代和ParC双替代。【结论】不同来源的耐氟喹诺酮类药物的大肠杆菌GyrA和ParC具有多种氨基酸替代类型,而且GyrA和ParC突变位点的数量与菌株对氟喹诺酮类耐药水平呈正相关。
[ Objective ] To detect mutations ofgyrA and parC in 72 Escherichia coli strains isolated from human feces, animal feces and the environment. [Method] MICs of ciprofloxacin or enrofloxacin for 72 isolates were determined by an agar dilution test with standard strain ATCC25922 as the control. The mutations in the quinolone resistance-determining regions (QRDRs) of the gyrA andparC genes were analyzed by PCR and sequencing. [Result] Amino acid substitutions (number of strains) found in 63 mutants were Ser83→Leu (62) and Asp87vAsn (52) , Asp87→Tyr (2) , Asp87→His (2) in GyrA and Ser80→Ile (47) , Ser80→Arg (2) and Glu84→Val (3) , Glu84→Lys (4) , Glu84→Gly (5) , Glu84→Ala ( 1 ) in ParC. No amino acid changes in GyrA or ParC were detected when strains MIC of ciprofloxacin were under 0.125 μg·ml^-1. A single substitution in GyrA was found in the strains whose MIC ofciprofloxacin ranged from 0.125 to 0.251μg·ml^-1. Double substitutions in GyrA or one in GyrA with one in ParC were found in the strains with MICof ciprofloxacin ranging from 0.5 to 32 μg·ml^-1. A double changes in GyrA and a single change in ParC were found in strains with MIC ofciprofloxacin ranging from 4 to 128μg·ml^-1. Double changes in GyrA and double changes in ParC were found in strains with MIC of ciprofloxacin ranging from 16 to 128μg·ml^-1. [Conclusion] A variety of amino acid changes in GyrA and ParC were detected in the fluoroquinolone-resistant E. coli isolates from different origin. A correlation was found between the number of changes in the QRDR of GyrA and ParC and the resistance level to fluoroquinolone in E. coli strains.
