pJIE143 (34 kb), from an Escherichia coli ST131 isolate, carries bla(CTX-M-15) but could not be typed using the standard PCR-based replicon-typing primer set. Complete sequencing revealed a backbone with similarity to IncX plasmids, including a pir-like gene encoding a pi-like replication protein and iterons related to those of other IncX plasmids. The 2.971-kb ISEcp1-bla(CTX-M-15)-orf477 Delta transposition unit often found within Tn2 is inserted just beyond the end of pir, flanked by 5-bp direct repeats.
