Characterisation of Class 1 Integron among Escherichia coli Isolated from Mansoura University Hospitals in Egypt
Extensive use of antibacterials in clinical practice has been associated with increasing frequency of multi-resistant E. coli strains. Genetic elements such as Class 1 integrons have an important role in resistance development. In the current study, a total of 84 E. coli clinical isolates from Mansoura hospitals patients in Egypt were screened for antibacterial susceptibility against 12 differe...
متن کاملNovel streptomycin and spectinomycin resistance gene as a gene cassette within a class 1 integron isolated from Escherichia coli.
The aadA genes, encoding resistance to streptomycin and spectinomycin, have been found as gene cassettes in different gram-negative and gram-positive bacterial species. The present study has revealed the sequence of a new gene, aadA5, integrated as a gene cassette together with the trimethoprim resistance gene dfr7 in a class 1 integron. The integron was located on a plasmid and was identified ...
متن کاملCRISPR adaptation in Escherichia coli subtypeI-E system.
The CRISPRs (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats) and their associated Cas (CRISPR-associated) proteins are a prokaryotic adaptive defence system against foreign nucleic acids. The CRISPR array comprises short repeats flanking short segments, called 'spacers', which are derived from foreign nucleic acids. The process of spacer insertion into the CRISPR array is termed 'ada...
متن کاملAntimicrobial Resistance Markers of Class 1 and Class 2 Integron-bearing Escherichia coli from Irrigation Water and Sediments
Municipal and agricultural pollution affects the Rio Grande, a river that separates the United States from Mexico. Three hundred and twenty-two Escherichia coli isolates were examined for multiple antibiotic resistance phenotypes and the prevalence of class 1 and class 2 integron sequences. Thirty-two (10%) of the isolates were resistant to multiple antibiotics. Four (13%) of these isolates con...
متن کاملClass I integron with a group II intron detected in an Escherichia coli strain from a free-range reindeer.
An Escherichia coli strain, isolated from wild reindeer in a remote mountain area, contained a class 1 integron with two unusual features: a group II intron and a cassette with homology to a superintegron cassette. Alignments indicate that attC sites of gene cassettes may be insertion sites for introns.
