Antimicrob Agents Chemother . 2014 Nov; 59(2):923-9. PMID: 25421466
The blaNDM-1 gene is associated with extensive drug resistance in Gram-negative bacteria. This probably spread to Enterobacteriaceae from Acinetobacter spp., and we characterized plasmids associated with blaNDM-1 in Acinetobacter spp....

Jones L, Toleman M, Weeks J, Howe R, Walsh T, Kumarasamy K
Antimicrob Agents Chemother . 2014 Apr; 58(7):4211-3. PMID: 24752257
NDM-1 probably emerged in Acinetobacter species prior to its dissemination among Enterobacteriaceae, and NDM-1-like enzymes are increasingly reported in Acinetobacter species. Here, we report on the genetic context of blaNDM-1...

Kumarasamy K, Toleman M, Walsh T, Bagaria J, Butt F, Balakrishnan R, et al.
Lancet Infect Dis . 2010 Aug; 10(9):597-602. PMID: 20705517
Background: Gram-negative Enterobacteriaceae with resistance to carbapenem conferred by New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamase 1 (NDM-1) are potentially a major global health problem. We investigated the prevalence of NDM-1, in multidrug-resistant Enterobacteriaceae...
