Class 1 Integrons in Salmonella Strains Causing Traveler's Diarrhea [PDF]

open access: yesAntimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2006
Traveler's diarrhea (TD) is a frequent health problem among travelers abroad. Diarrheagenic Escherichia coli, Shigella spp., Salmonella spp., and Campylobacter spp. are among the most common causes of TD (3, 5). The antimicrobial resistance in Salmonella strains is an increasing problem (15).

Correlation between class 1 integron of Escherichia coli and multidrug resistance in lower respiratory tract infection

open access: yesJournal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2017
Introduction: Class 1 integrons are mobile genetic elements considered to be responsible for the transfer of multidrug resistance. This study aimed to investigate the distribution of type 1 integrons in multidrug-resistantEscherichiacolifrom hospital ...

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

open access: yesFrontiers 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

Two-dimensional PCR for detecting class 1, 2 and 3 integrons

open access: yesHeliyon, 2022
Integrons can capture and express foreign gene cassettes through site-specific recombination and are important genetic elements in spreading antibiotic resistance genes among bacteria. We have developed a two-dimensional PCR technology (2D-PCR) based on the base quenching probe technology in detecting three major integrons at the same time. The minimum

Class 1 Integrons in Environments with Different Degrees of Urbanization

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Les intégrons de classe 1 sont l'un des éléments les plus efficaces dans l'acquisition, l'expression et la propagation des gènes de résistance aux antimicrobiens (Arg) parmi les isolats cliniques. On sait peu de choses sur le flux génétique des composants des plates-formes génétiques des intégrons de classe 1 à l'intérieur et entre les communautés ...

An intrinsic control element for translational initiation in class 1 integrons [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, 2002
SummaryIntegrons are genetic elements able to capture anti‐biotic resistance and other genes and to promote their transcription. Here, we have investigated integron‐dependent translation of an aminoglycoside 6′‐N‐acetyltransferase gene (aac(6′)‐Ib7) inserted at the attI1 site. N‐terminal sequencing revealed that translation of this gene was initiated
