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 ...

Novel Gene Cassettes and Integrons [PDF]
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2001 ABSTRACT An increase in multiresistant Enterobacteriaceae was observed at one of the departments of the University Medical Center Utrecht. Nine different integrons and 17 gene cassettes were found, including the new gene cassette aadA8 . This cassette was highly related to

Epidemiology of integrons among multidrug-resistant pathogens; an Asian update [PDF]
, 2022 Integrons are mobile genetic elements commonly found in the genome of bacteria, within plasmids, chromosomes, and transposons. They are recognized as important factors involved in genetic complexities, the formation of various phenotypes, and the ...

High prevalence of class i and class ii integrons in uropathogenic e. coli strains (upecs) and their relationship with antibiotic resistance, phylogeny and virulence [PDF]
, 2021 Objective: Integrons, which are highly effective in capturing, integrating and expressing gene cassettes, play an important role in the dissemination of multiple antibiotic resistances.

MULTIDRUG RESISTANCE AND INTEGRONS IN ESCHERICHIA COLI ISOLATED FROM FOOD-PRODUCING ANIMALS IN SAUDI ARABIA [PDF]
Assiut Veterinary Medical Journal, 2015 Transference of antimicrobial resistance gene determinants by integrons is one of the important factors that can contribute to the increase in multidrug-resistant bacteria. The present study aimed to investigate 56 strains of animal-derived E.

Integrons as tools for epidemiological studies [PDF]
Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2004 The integron content of Gram-negative strains implicated in three distinct episodes of suspected cross-infection among inpatients was investigated and compared with ribotyping. In the first episode, ribotyping identified a strain of Acinetobacter, isolated over a 3-month period, responsible for an outbreak associated with the use of mechanical ...
