Identification of Plasmid-Mediated Tigecycline-Resistant Gene tet(X4) in Enterobacter cloacae from Pigs in China

ABSTRACT Two tet(X4)-positive Enterobacter cloacae isolates TECL_1 and TECL_2 were isolated from pigs in China. S1-PFGE and Southern blotting showed that tet(X4) located on plasmids in the size of ∼290 kb and ∼190 kb in TECL_1 and TECL_2, respectively. Conjugation experiment demonstrated that the te...
