Characterization of Tn916S, a Tn916-like element containing the tetracycline resistance determinant tet(S).
We have characterized a transferable tetracycline resistance (Tcr) element from a Streptococcus intermedius isolate. The gene responsible for this resistance was identified by PCR and Southern hybridization as tet(S). Furthermore, the genetic support for this determinant was shown to be a conjugative transposon closely related to Tn916. This element has been designated Tn916S.

4-Aminobiphenyl (ABP), a prototypical aromatic amine carcinogen in rodents and humans, requires bioactivation to manifest its toxic effects. A traditional model of ABP bioactivation, based on in vitro enzyme kinetic evidence, had postulated initial N-hydroxylation by the cytochrome P450 isoform CYP1A2. This is followed by phase 2 O-conjugation and hydrolysis to form a reactive nitrenium ion tha...
متن کامل"tet(U)" is not a tetracycline resistance determinant.
The enterococcal plasmid pKQ10 has been reported to carry a poorly characterized tetracycline resistance determinant designated tet(U). However, in a series of studies intended to further characterize this determinant, we have been unable to substantiate the claim that tet(U) confers resistance to tetracyclines. In line with these results, bioinformatic analysis provides compelling evidence tha...
متن کاملOccurrence of tetracycline resistance genes tet(M) and tet(S) in bacteria from marine aquaculture sites.
Occurrence of tetracycline resistance genes encoding ribosomal protection proteins was examined in 151 tetracycline-resistant bacterial isolates from fish and seawater at coastal aquaculture sites in Japan and Korea. The tet(M) gene was detected in 34 Japanese and Korean isolates, which included Vibrio sp., Lactococcus garvieae, Photobacterium damsela subsp. piscicida, and unidentified Gram-pos...

The high density of A1 adenosine receptors in the brain results in significant potential for central nervous system (CNS)–related adverse effects with A1 agonists. Tecadenoson is a selective A1 adenosine receptor agonist with close similarity to adenosine. We studied the binding and transmembrane transport of tecadenoson by recombinant human equilibrative nucleoside transporters (hENTs) hENT1 a...
