The influence of the accessory genome on bacterial pathogen evolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Bacterial pathogens exhibit significant variation in their genomic content of virulence factors. This reflects the abundance of strategies pathogens evolved to infect host organisms by suppressing host immunity.

Antimicrobial Resistance Markers of Class 1 and Class 2 Integron-bearing Escherichia coli from Irrigation Water and Sediments

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2003
Municipal and agricultural pollution affects the Rio Grande, a river that separates the United States from Mexico. Three hundred and twenty-two Escherichia coli isolates were examined for multiple antibiotic resistance phenotypes and the prevalence of ...

The large plasmid carried class 1 integrons mediated multidrug resistance of foodborne Salmonella Indiana

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Salmonella enterica serovar Indiana (S. Indiana) has aroused widespread concern as an important zoonotic pathogen. The molecular mechanism of multidrug resistance (MDR) in S. Indiana is not known and should be assessed.

Bacteremia caused by an Acinetobacter junii strain harboring class 1 integron and diverse DNA mobile elements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
INTRODUCTION: Infections caused by Acinetobacter junii are rarely reported. However, some outbreaks of septicemia in neonates and pediatric oncology patients, as well as meningitis, peritonitis, and ocular infection have been described.

Broad-spectrum β-lactamases among Enterobacteriaceae of animal origin: molecular aspects, mobility and impact on public health [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Broad-spectrum β-lactamase genes (coding for extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) and AmpC β-lactamases) have been frequently demonstrated in the microbiota of food-producing animals. This may pose a human health hazard since these genes may be present

Using of Integrons as Biomarker to Assess Dissemination and Diversity of Antimicrobial Resistance Genes in Farm Animal Manure

open access: yesJournal of Pure and Applied Microbiology, 2023
Antimicrobial agents are widely used for treatment of animal and human diseases. Heavy use of antimicrobial agents permits bacteria to develop resistance to these agents specifically when a dose of antibiotic is insufficient or course of treatment is ...

Genomic comparison of diverse Salmonella serovars isolated from swine. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Food animals act as a reservoir for many foodborne pathogens. Salmonella enterica is one of the leading pathogens that cause food borne illness in a broad host range including animals and humans.

Integron Gene Cassettes: A Repository of Novel Protein Folds with Distinct Interaction Sites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Mobile gene cassettes captured within integron arrays encompass a vast and diverse pool of genetic novelty. In most cases, functional annotation of gene cassettes directly recovered by cassette-PCR is obscured by their characteristically high sequence ...

A blaVIM-2 Plasmid Disseminating in Extensively Drug-Resistant Clinical Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Serratia marcescens Isolates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Infections caused by carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae isolates are an issue of major global concern (1). Genes coding for metallo-β-lactamases (MβLs) identified in clinical isolates are associated with mobile elements and subject to horizontal ...
