Abstract

ABSTRACT V ibrio c holerae c arbapenemase (VCC-1) is a chromosomal encoded class A carbapenemase thus far reported in environmental Vibrio cholerae isolates. Here, we report the first isolation of a bla VCC-1 -carrying Aeromonas caviae from a clinical sample in Israel. The isolate was resistant to all β-lactam agents, including carbapenems. The bla VCC-1 was located on a large plasmid. GC content suggests that the origin of the bla VCC-1 gene is neither Aeromonas nor Vibrio spp. but an unknown progenitor.
