Amplification of mecA gene in multi-drug resistant Staphylococcus aureus strains from hospital personnel

Journal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2007
Background: Antibiotic resistance is common among bacterial pathogens associated with both community acquired and nosocomial infections. In view of the present problem of drug resistance we investigated the prevalence of methicillin resistant ...

Decoding the enigma: unveiling the transmission characteristics of waterfowl-associated blaNDM-5-positive Escherichia coli in select regions of China

Frontiers in Microbiology
Escherichia coli (E. coli) serves as a critical indicator microorganism for assessing the prevalence and dissemination of antibiotic resistance, notably harboring various antibiotic-resistant genes (ARGs).

The integron In1 in plasmid R46 includes two copies of the oxa2 gene cassette.

, 1992
The sequence of the insert region of the integron In1 found in the IncN plasmid R46 was completed. The insert region is 2929 bases long and includes four gene cassettes, two of which are identical copies of the oxa2 gene cassette flanking an aadA1 ...

Plasmids affect microindel mutations in Acinetobacter baylyi ADP1 [PDF]

Plasmids can impact the evolution of their hosts, e.g. due to carriage of mutagenic genes, through cross-talk with host genes or as result of SOS induction during transfer. Here we demonstrate that plasmids can affect the level of microindel mutations in

Identification and molecular genetic analysis of replication functions of the bacteriocinogenic plasmid pIP404 from Clostridium perfringens

The replication functions of the bacteriocinogenic plasmid pIP404, from Clostridium perfringens, were localized to a 2.8-kb EcoRI-EcoRV fragment by cloning into a vector deficient for replication in Bacillus subtilis.
