Resistance to carbapenems in non-typhoidal Salmonella enterica serovars from humans, animals and food [PDF]
Non-typhoidal serovars of Salmonella enterica (NTS) are a leading cause of food-borne disease in animals and humans worldwide. Like other zoonotic bacteria, NTS have the potential to act as reservoirs and vehicles for the transmission of antimicrobial ...

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

Class 1 integrons are low-cost structures in Escherichia coli [PDF]
Abstract Resistance integrons are bacterial genetic platforms that can capture and express antibiotic resistance genes embedded within gene cassettes. The capture and shuffling of gene cassettes are mediated by the integrase IntI, the expression of which is regulated by the SOS response in Escherichia coli.

Characterization of the novel In1059 harbouring VIM gene cassette
Background VIM-type enzyme encodes the most widely acquired metallo-β-lactamases in Gram- negative bacteria. To obtain current epidemiological data for integrons from enterobacteriae in hospital, the study characterizes the genetic structure in In1059 by

Analysis for prevalence and physical linkages amongst integrons, ISEcp1, ISCR1, Tn21 and Tn7 encountered in Escherichia coli strains from hospitalized and non-hospitalized patients in Kenya during a 19-year period (1992-2011) [PDF]
Background: We determined the prevalence and evidence for physical linkage amongst integrons, insertion sequences, Tn21 and Tn7 transposons in a collection of 1327 E. coli obtained over a 19-year period from patients in Kenya.

Molecular Biology Of Class 1 Mobile Integrons
Summary. The rapid spread of antibiotic resistance has significantly limited treatment options, increased mortality rates of infections and has become a major clinical and public health problem. Integrons are genetic platforms carried by plasmids or contained within a transposon, and their role in the dissemination of resistance genes among bacteria ...

Identification of Class 1 Integron of Escherichia coli from Street Foods in Jakarta
A total of 43 Escherichia coli isolates were identified from school street foods located in Northern and Southern Jakarta. The isolates were examined for antibiotic resistance using five antibiotics discs (ampicillin, kanamycin, streptomycin ...
