Abstract
The emergence and transmission of multidrug resistance (MDR) gene cfr have incurred great public health concerns worldwide. Recently, Gram-negative pathogens were found to carry cfr by various mobile elements. Here, we investigated a cfr-positive Vibrio diabolicus isolate by phenotyping and genomic analysis and found cfr in a translocatable structure (IS26-hp-cfr-IS26) among the MDR region in pNV27-cfr-208K, an emerging MDR plasmid in Vibrio species. This study highlights the necessity of surveillance of cfr in bacteria of diverse origins.
