[Integrons: gene collectors].

open access: yesRevista 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

Identification of class 1 and 2 integrons from clinical and environmental Salmonella isolates

open access: yesJournal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2014
Introduction: The indiscriminate use of antimicrobials has selected for the emergence of resistant strains. Many mechanisms contribute to the spread of antimicrobial-resistant genes, and integrons play a key role in this process.

[Integrons].

open access: yesMikrobiyoloji 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.

Genetic relatedness among isolates of Shigella sonnei carrying class 2 integrons in Tehran, Iran, 2002–2003 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
BACKGROUND: Shigella spp. are major cause of diarrhoeal disease in both developing and developed countries. Shigella sonnei is the serogroup of Shigella most frequently responsible for sporadic and epidemic enteritis in developed countries.

Frequency of Class 1 Integrons among Escherichia coli Isolates of Patients with Urinary Tract Infection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background: Recent studies demonstrated an increased pattern of drug resistance in uropathogenic Escherechia coli (E. coli) which is considered as the most common cause of urinary tract infections (UTIs).

Clonal spread of Klebsiella pneumoniae producing OXA-1 betalactamase in a Spanish hospital [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Multi-drug resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates are associated with nosocomial infections, in which colonized patients act as a reservoir and source of cross-infection for other patients.

Genomic Plasticity of Vibrio cholerae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Vibrio cholerae is one of the deadliest pathogens in the history of humankind. It is the causative agent of cholera, adisease characterized by a profuse and watery diarrhoea that still today causes 95.000 deaths worldwide every year. V. choleraeis a free
