Characterization of the novel In1059 harbouring VIM gene cassette

Antimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control, 2017
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]

, 2013
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.

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

Frontiers 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

Complete sequence of the IncA/C 1 plasmid pCf587 carrying bla PER-2 from citrobacter freundii [PDF]

, 2018
The bla PER-2 -harboring plasmid pCf587 (191,541 bp) belongs to lineage IncA/C 1 and is closely related to pRA1. It contains a large resistance island including the bla PER-2 gene between two copies of ISKox2-like elements, the toxin-antitoxin module ...

Identification of Class 1 Integron of Escherichia coli from Street Foods in Jakarta

Microbiology Indonesia, 2010
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 ...

Resistance integrons; A Mini review.

Caspian journal of internal medicine, 2019
Integrons are a segment of dsDNA that play a major role in bacterial adaptation and evolution. These genetic determinants are known by the presence of three necessary apparatuses: an integrase (intI gene), Pc (a promoter) and attI (a recombination site).

Antibiotic resistance in the environment, with particular reference to MRSA [PDF]

, 2008
The introduction of β-lactam antibiotics (penicillins and cephalosporins) in the 1940s and 1950s probably represents the most dramatic event in the battle against infection in human medicine.

The evolutionary history of chromosomal super-integrons provides an ancestry for multiresistant integrons [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2001
Integrons are genetic elements that acquire and exchange exogenous DNA, known as gene cassettes, by a site-specific recombination mechanism. Characterized gene cassettes consist of a target recombination sequence ( attC site) usually associated with a single open reading frame coding for an antibiotic resistance

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

Journal 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 ...
