Antibiotics, 2021 Antimicrobial resistance genes are often associated with integrons, which promote their movement between and within DNA molecules. IntFinder 1.0 and I-VIP v1.2 were used for the detection of integrons and their associated resistance genes in assembled ...

Annual Review of Genetics, 2010 Integrons are genetic elements able to acquire and rearrange open reading frames (ORFs) embedded in gene cassette units and convert them to functional genes by ensuring their correct expression. They were originally identified as a mechanism used by Gram-negative bacteria to collect antibiotic resistance genes and express multiple resistance ...

Abundance of integrons in halophilic bacteria
Canadian Journal of Microbiology, 2022 Integrons are genetic platforms used for expressing open reading frames (ORFs) arranged in gene cassettes. Excision and integration of gene cassettes are controlled by their associated integron integrase (IntI). Using IntegronFinder software, we analyzed all complete halophilic genomes available in the HaloDom database, along with selected partial ...

Resistance integrons. Mini review [PDF]
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).

[Integrons: gene collectors]. [PDF]
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

Imported Retail Beef and Chicken Meat Products Serve as Reservoirs for Emerging Antibiotic-Resistant Pathotypes of Escherichia coli in Pristine Areas Free From Agricultural Activity. [PDF]
MicrobiologyopenRetail meat–derived E. coli frequently harbored multidrug‑resistance phenotypes, diverse virulence determinants, and plasmid‑encoded resistance genes with high conjugative potential. Results indicate meat and poultry as underrecognized reservoirs facilitating dissemination of antimicrobial resistance and pathogenic lineages, with imported products ...
