Evolution of trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole resistance in Shewanella algae from the perspective of comparative genomics and global phylogenic analysis

Journal of Microbiology, Immunology and Infection, 2022
Objective: Shewanella algae is a zoonotic marine bacterium that causes a variety of infections in immunocompromised patients or those who have been exposed to seawater. The development of trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole (TMP/SMX) resistance in S. algae are

Evolution of class 1 integrons: Mobilization and dispersal via food-borne bacteria. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
Class 1 integrons have played a major role in the global dissemination of antibiotic resistance. Reconstructing the history of class 1 integrons might help us control further spread of antibiotic resistance by understanding how human activities influence

The function of integron-associated genes cassettes in Vibrio species: the tip of the iceberg

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2013
The integron is a genetic element that incorporates mobile genes termed gene cassettes into a reserved genetic site via site-specific recombination. It is best known for its role in antibiotic resistance with one type of integron, the class 1 integron, a
