Journal ArticleDOI

Integron Involvement in Environmental Spread of Antibiotic Resistance

TL;DR: The aim of this review is to provide an in-depth analysis of recent studies of antibiotic-resistance integrons in the environment, highlighting their potential involvement in antibiotic-Resistance outside the clinical context and the impact of human activities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantitative multiplex real-time PCR for detecting class 1, 2 and 3 integrons

TL;DR: A rapid, quantitative, specific and sensitive Taqman probe-based real-time PCR method with three different primer-probe pairs for simultaneous detection of the three main classes of integron that could prove useful for initial screening of Gram-negative isolates, or clinical samples, for likely multidrug resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI

The SOS response promotes qnrB quinolone-resistance determinant expression

TL;DR: It is shown that qnrB2 expression is regulated through the SOS response in a LexA/RecA‐dependent manner, and that it can be induced by the quinolone ciprofloxacin, a known inducer of the SOS system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diversity of Class 1 Integron Gene Cassette Rearrangements Selected under Antibiotic Pressure

TL;DR: The results suggest that gene cassette rearrangements via excision are probably less cost-effective than excision and integration of a distal gene cassette closer to Pc, thus leading to higher-level resistance.
