Résumé

The increasing prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains resistant to non-beta-lactam antimicrobials poses a significant challenge in treating severe MRSA bloodstream infections. This study explores resistance development and mechanisms in MRSA isolates, especially after the first dalbavancin-resistant MRSA strain in our hospital in 2016. This study investigated 55 MRSA bloodstream isolates (02/2015-02/2021) from the University Hospital of the Medical University of Vienna, Austria. The MICs of dalbavancin, linezolid, and daptomycin were assessed. Two isolates (16-33 and 19-362) resistant to dalbavancin were analyzed via whole-genome sequencing, with morphology evaluated using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). S.aureus BSI strain 19-362 had two novel missense mutations (p.I515M and p.A606D) in the pbp2 gene. Isolate 16-33 had a 534 bp deletion in the DHH domain of GdpP and a SNV in pbp2 (p.G146R). Both strains had mutations in the rpoB gene, but at different positions. TEM revealed significantly thicker cell walls in 16-33 (p < 0.05) compared to 19-362 and dalbavancin-susceptible strains. None of the MRSA isolates showed resistance to linezolid or daptomycin. In light of increasing vancomycin resistance reports, continuous surveillance is essential to comprehend the molecular mechanisms of resistance in alternative MRSA treatment options. In this work, two novel missense mutations (p.I515M and p.A606D) in the pbp2 gene were newly identified as possible causes of dalbavancin resistance.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
The increasing prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains resistant to non-beta-lactam antimicrobials poses a significant challenge in treating severe MRSA bloodstream infections. This study explores resistance development and mechanisms in MRSA isolates, especially after the first dalbavancin-resistant MRSA strain in our hospital in 2016.
METHODS METHODS
This study investigated 55 MRSA bloodstream isolates (02/2015-02/2021) from the University Hospital of the Medical University of Vienna, Austria. The MICs of dalbavancin, linezolid, and daptomycin were assessed. Two isolates (16-33 and 19-362) resistant to dalbavancin were analyzed via whole-genome sequencing, with morphology evaluated using transmission electron microscopy (TEM).
RESULTS RESULTS
S.aureus BSI strain 19-362 had two novel missense mutations (p.I515M and p.A606D) in the pbp2 gene. Isolate 16-33 had a 534 bp deletion in the DHH domain of GdpP and a SNV in pbp2 (p.G146R). Both strains had mutations in the rpoB gene, but at different positions. TEM revealed significantly thicker cell walls in 16-33 (p < 0.05) compared to 19-362 and dalbavancin-susceptible strains. None of the MRSA isolates showed resistance to linezolid or daptomycin.
CONCLUSION CONCLUSIONS
In light of increasing vancomycin resistance reports, continuous surveillance is essential to comprehend the molecular mechanisms of resistance in alternative MRSA treatment options. In this work, two novel missense mutations (p.I515M and p.A606D) in the pbp2 gene were newly identified as possible causes of dalbavancin resistance.
