Abstract:
Objective To analyze the prevalent characteristics,sequence type(ST),and blaOXA gene distribution of global Acineto-bacter pittii,and provide reference for prevention and clinical medication against this infection.Methods All the sequences of A.pittii genomes were downloaded in batch from NCBI by using Aspera software with deadline of November 30,2023,and perl script was used to extract the meta information of strains in batch from the downloaded GBK file.A self-made Perl program was utilized to extract the nucleotide coding sequence of the gene from each genome sequence file of A.pittii as the analysis database.BLASTN comparative analy-sis was implemented by using the allelic sequences of 7 housekeeping genes of the genus Acinetobacter Sp downloaded from the website as a query database to determine the ST of each genome.The nucleotide sequences of the blaOXA genes were downloaded from the NCBI pathogen resistance gene database and the self-written AMRG software was utilized to analyze the distribution of blaOXA gene among A.pittii.Results A total of 305 A.pittii genomes were obtained,which were mainly isolated from 1990 to 2020.The isolation rates showed an increasing trend of year by year with the highest isolation rate in 2015.The separation rates of the United States,China and Germany ranked in the top three positions,with the separation rates of 29.5%(90 strains),15.7%(48 strains),and 13.4%(41 strains),respectively.A total of 180(59.0%)specimens were sourced from humans,of which 42(23.3%)were from sputum,27(15.0%)from blood,and 15(8.3%)from skin and soft tissues.The 305 strains of A.pittii were assigned into 79 STs,among which ST93(14.4%),ST64(12.1%)and ST63(11.8%)accounted for the highest proportion.In the United States,China and Germany,the infections were mainly affected by ST64,ST63 and ST93,respectively.The 305 A.pitti carried the blaOXA gene except 6 strains,while the remained 299 strains carried 31 blaOXA variants,of which,252 blaOXA genes were found to own the carbapenemase hydrolysis activity and 146 strains carried blaOXA-500 gene.Conclusion There should be regional differences in the global distribution of A.pittii,and the high prevalence of the carbapenemase gene blaOXA suggested a potential trend of multi-drug resistance,which is worthy to be monitored.
