Natural genetic transformation of clinical isolates of Escherichia coli in urine and water.

Markus Woegerbauer1, Bernard Jenni, Florian Thalhammer, Wolfgang Graninger, Heinz Burgmann.   

Abstract

Transfer of plasmid-borne antibiotic resistance genes in Escherichia coli wild-type strains is possible by transformation under naturally occurring conditions in oligotrophic, aquatic environments containing physiologic concentrations of calcium. In contrast, transformation is suppressed in nitrogen-rich body fluids like urine, a common habitat of uropathogenic strains. Current knowledge indicates that transformation of these E. coli wild-type strains is of no relevance for the acquisition of resistance in this clinically important environment.
