Extensive DNA mimicry by the ArdA anti-restriction protein and its role in the spread of antibiotic resistance [PDF]
The ardA gene, found in many prokaryotes including important pathogenic species, allows associated mobile genetic elements to evade the ubiquitous Type I DNA restriction systems and thereby assist the spread of resistance genes in bacterial populations ...

Is plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance a clinically significant problem? [PDF]
Although resistance to quinolones is commonly chromosomally-encoded in Enterobacteriaceae, the emergence of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) has also been reported, with at least three known resistance mechanisms to date, i.e., Qnr ...

Quinolone resistance mechanisms among extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) producing Escherichia coli isolated from rivers and lakes in Switzerland. [PDF]
Sixty extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli isolated from rivers and lakes in Switzerland were screened for individual strains additionally exhibiting a reduced quinolone susceptibility phenotype.

Quinolone Resistance Genes and Their Contribution to Resistance in Vibrio cholerae Serogroup O139
Background. Quinolones are commonly used for reducing the duration of diarrhea, infection severity, and limiting further transmission of disease related to Vibrio cholerae, but V. cholerae susceptibility to quinolone decreases over time.

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

Two Different Tetracycline Resistance Mechanisms, Plasmid-Carried tet(L) and Chromosomally Located Transposon-Associated tet(M), Coexist in Lactobacillus sakei Rits 9 [PDF]
Lactobacillus sakei is extensively used as functional starter culture in fermented meat products. One of the safety criteria of a starter culture is the absence of potentially transferable antibiotic resistance determinants.
