Differential Epigenetic Compatibility of qnr Antibiotic Resistance Determinants with the Chromosome of Escherichia coli

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Environmental bacteria harbor a plethora of genes that, upon their horizontal transfer to new hosts, may confer resistance to antibiotics, although the number of such determinants actually acquired by pathogenic bacteria is very low. The founder effect, fitness costs and ecological connectivity all influence the chances of resistance transfer being ...

TGF-β3 mRNA is upregulated in QNR/v-srcts/ICN cells.

open access: yes, 2013
QNR/v-srcts and QNR/v-srcts/ICN cells were incubated 72 hrs at 37°C or 41°C before extraction of total RNA. After reverse transcription of 1 µg of RNA, TGF-β3 cDNA was amplified by QPCR using specific primers (Table 1) Results were normalized based on ...

Highly Enhanced Directional Emission from Emitter‐Integrated Dielectric Metasurfaces: Role of the Emitter Layer

open access: yesSmall Structures, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
Highly enhanced directional emission with narrow angular divergence is experimentally demonstrated from InP/ZnS quantum dots (QDs) and CdSe/ZnS QD‐integrated dielectric metasurfaces. The low intrinsic losses of the InP/ZnS QD layer enable significantly higher emission enhancement when the two QD types are coated on the same metasurface.

New qnr Gene Cassettes Associated with Superintegron Repeats in Vibrio cholerae O1

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2008
A novel qnr determinant emerged in ciprofloxacin-resistant Vibrio cholerae O1 from the Amazon region of Brazil. This qnrVC1 was in a typical class 1 integron. Its attC showed 89% identity with V. parahaemolyticus superintegron repeats. Analysis showed V.
