Evolution and Recombination of the Plasmidic qnr Alleles

Journal of Molecular Evolution, 2008
qnr is an important and recently emerged plasmidic fluoroquinolone resistance gene. Numerous qnr alleles have been detected, but previous studies have suggested that there is little functional divergence among them. We performed phylogenetic analysis of representative qnr alleles and examined the phylogeny for the occurrence of positive selection (d(N)/

High-resolution melting analysis for rapid characterization of qnr alleles in clinical isolates and detection of two novel alleles, qnrB25 and qnrB42.

open access: yesJournal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2012
International audienceOBJECTIVES: qnr genes are plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance genes. Five qnr families have been described with several alleles (7 alleles of qnrA, 53 alleles of qnrB, 1 allele of qnrC, 1 allele of qnrD and 6 alleles of qnrS ...

Plasmidic qnr Genes Confer Clinical Resistance to Ciprofloxacin under Urinary Tract Physiological Conditions. [PDF]

open access: yesAntimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2017
Escherichia coli variants expressing plasmid-mediated qnr genes are usually susceptible to fluoroquinolones by standard susceptibility testing. Here we show that, under specific urinary tract physiological conditions, susceptible laboratory and clinical ...

Using QNR index as decision criteria for improving fusion quality

2008 2nd International Conference on Advances in Space Technologies, 2008
Pansharpening is the process of improving spatial resolution of multispectral (MS) satellite images using the spatial details of a high resolution panchromatic (PAN) image. Quality without reference (QNR) index is a tool which can be used to determine the global quality of the fused images without requiring a high resolution reference MS image.

Bloodstream infections caused by qnr-positive Enterobacteriaceae: clinical and microbiologic characteristics and outcomes

Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease, 2010
The clinical significance of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance determinant qnr has not been well characterized. We investigated the clinical and microbiologic characteristics and outcomes of bloodstream infections (BSIs) caused by qnr-positive Enterobacteriaceae. We prospectively collected 351 nonduplicate consecutive blood isolates of Enterobacter
