Integrones: los coleccionistas de genes Integrons: gene collectors

Revista Argentina de Microbiología, 2010
Los integrones son estructuras genéticas que han despertado gran interés, debido a que algunos de ellos vehiculizan genes de resistencia a los antimicrobianos. Están formados por un fragmento que codifica una integrasa (intI) y, a continuación, una secuencia attI a la que se unen los genes en casetes que codifican diferentes mecanismos de resistencia ...

[Integrons].

Mikrobiyoloji bulteni, 2005
The development of antimicrobial resistance has led to the discovery of many natural mobile elements like transposons and conjugative plasmids. Integrons are carried on plasmids and transposons that potentially increase the dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes among bacterial species.

[Integrons: gene collectors].

Revista Argentina de microbiologia, 2010
Integrons gained great interest due to their participation in resistance gene recruitment and expression. Their basic structure includes a fragment that encodes an integrase (intI) followed by a recognition sequence (attI) into which they may incorporate gene cassettes (encoding resistance mechanisms). A promoter (Pc) embedded within the integrase gene
