High Prevalence of Class 1 to 3 Integrons Among Multidrug-Resistant Diarrheagenic Escherichia coli in Southwest of Iran

, 2014
ObjectivesHorizontal transfer of integrons is one of the important factors that can contribute to the occurrence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of integrons among MDR Escherichia coli strains isolated ...

Class 1 integrons potentially predating the association with Tn402-like transposition genes are present in a sediment microbial community

, 2006
Udgivelsesdato: August 2006Integrons are genetic elements that contribute to lateral gene transfer in bacteria as a consequence of possessing a site-specific recombination system.

Pc promoter from class 2 integrons and the cassette transcription pattern it evokes

, 2011
Integrons are considered expression systems due to the presence of Pc promoters that drive gene cassette transcription. The role and configurations of Pc are well known in class 1 integrons; however, this region has not yet been identified in class 2 ...

Detection of Integrons in Escherichia coli Associated With Urinary Tract Infections in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

International Journal of Microbiology
Treatment of Escherichia coli infections has become increasingly challenging due to the emergence of multidrug-resistant mechanisms within the bacterial genome. Integrons play an essential role in spreading antibiotic resistance.

Class 1 Integrons in Resistant Escherichia coli and Klebsiella spp., US Hospitals

, 2006
We examined Escherichia coli and Klebsiella spp. from US hospitals for class 1 integrons. Of 320 isolates, 181 (57%) were positive; association of integrons with resistance varied by drug and organism. Thus, determining integron epidemiology will improve

Vegetable phylloplane microbiomes harbour class 1 integrons in novel bacterial hosts and drive the spread of chlorite resistance

Bacterial hosts in vegetable phylloplanes carry mobile genetic elements, such as plasmids and transposons that are associated with integrons. These mobile genetic elements and their cargo genes can enter human microbiomes via consumption of fresh ...
