Class I integron with a group II intron detected in an Escherichia coli strain from a free-range reindeer.
نویسنده
چکیده
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.

Background and objectives: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is the most prevalent infection and Escherichia coli (E. coli) is one of the main causes of UTI worldwide. Integrons are mobile genetic elements considered to be responsible for dissemination of multi-drug resistance infections. Therefore, the aims of this study were to investigate the antibiotic resistance patterns and distribution of cl...

Background and purpose: Extended spectrum beta lactamases (ESBLs) are important causes of multidrug resistance (MDR) Escherichia coli. ESBL genes are usually located on conjugative plasmids or on integron structures. The aim of this study was to detect ESBLs on class I integron in Escherichia coli isolated from clinical samples. Materials and methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was ...
