{"doi":"10.1128/aac.00179-17","title":"Rapid Identification of Different Escherichia coli Sequence Type 131 Clades","abstract":"<jats:title>ABSTRACT</jats:title>\n          <jats:p>\n            <jats:named-content content-type=\"genus-species\">Escherichia coli</jats:named-content>\n            sequence type 131 (ST131) is a pandemic clonal lineage that is responsible for the global increase in fluoroquinolone resistance and extended-spectrum-β-lactamase (ESBL) producers. The members of ST131 clade C, especially subclades C2 and C1-M27, are associated with ESBLs. We developed a multiplex conventional PCR assay with the ability to detect all ST131 clades (A, B, and C), as well as C subclades (C1-M27, C1-nM27 [C1-non-M27], and C2). To validate the assay, we used 80 ST131 global isolates that had been fully sequenced. We then used the assay to define the prevalence of each clade in two Japanese collections consisting of 460 ESBL-producing\n            <jats:named-content content-type=\"genus-species\">E. coli</jats:named-content>\n            ST131 (2001-12) and 329\n            <jats:named-content content-type=\"genus-species\">E. coli</jats:named-content>\n            isolates from extraintestinal sites (ExPEC) (2014). The assay correctly identified the different clades in all 80 global isolates: clades A (\n            <jats:italic>n</jats:italic>\n            = 12), B (\n            <jats:italic>n</jats:italic>\n            = 12), and C, including subclades C1-M27 (\n            <jats:italic>n</jats:italic>\n            = 16), C1-nM27 (\n            <jats:italic>n</jats:italic>\n            = 20), C2 (\n            <jats:italic>n</jats:italic>\n            = 17), and other C (\n            <jats:italic>n</jats:italic>\n            = 3). The assay also detected all 565 ST131 isolates in both collections without any false positives. Isolates from clades A (\n            <jats:italic>n</jats:italic>\n            = 54), B (\n            <jats:italic>n</jats:italic>\n            = 23), and C (\n            <jats:italic>n</jats:italic>\n            = 483) corresponded to the O serotypes and the\n            <jats:italic>fimH</jats:italic>\n            types of O16-H41, O25b-H22, and O25b-H30, respectively. Of the 483 clade C isolates, C1-M27 was the most common subclade (36%), followed by C1-nM27 (32%) and C2 (15%).
