Plasmid-mediated ffuoroquinolone resistance determinants are increasingly identified worldwide among various isolates of Enterobacteriaceae (9). Among them, QepA belongs to the major facilitator superfamily (MFS)-type group of efffux pumps. It was initially identified in Escherichia coli clinical isolates from Belgium and Japan (8, 13). QepA (now QepA1) has subsequently been detected in E. coli isolates of human (1, 5, 10) and animal (6, 7) origins. QepA2, a two-amino-acid variant of QepA1, has been reported from an E. coli clinical isolate in France (2).Here we report identification of QepA1 in an E. coli isolate from the United States. E. coli M3006 was isolated from the urine of a 47-year-old female patient with paraplegia, who was admitted from a nursing home to a hospital in Detroit, MI, for treatment of sacral osteomyelitis in January 2010. She had received ciproffoxacin for 10 days just prior to her presentation. The isolate was highly resistant to ceftazidime, cefotaxime, cefepime, ciproffoxacin, and amikacin, all with MICs of 32 g/ml, and susceptible to all four carbapenems (ertapenem, imipenem, meropenem, and doripenem). PCR analysis was performed to identify various resistance genes, including-lactamase genes blaTEM, blaSHV, and blaCTX-M; 16S rRNA methylase genes armA, rmtB, and
