Colistin drug resistance is an emerging public health threat worldwide. The adaptability, existence and spread of colistin drug resistance in multiple reservoirs and ecological environmental settings is significantly increasing the rate of occurrence of multidrug resistant (MDR) bacteria such as Escherichia coli (E. coli). Here, we summarized the reports regarding molecular and biological characterization of mobile colistin resistance gene...
