Importance of integrons in the diffusion of resistance
Open accessAbstract
Horizontal transfer of resistance genes is a successful mechanism for the transmission and dissemination of multiple drug resistance among bacterial pathogens.The impact of horizontally transmitted genetic determinants in the evolution of resistance is particularly evident when resistance genes are physically associated in clusters and transferred en bloc to the recipient cell.Recent advances in the molecular characterisation of antibiotic resistance mechanisms have highlighted the existence of genetic structures, called integrons, involved in the acquisition of resistance genes.These DNA elements have frequently been reported in multi-drug resistant strains isolated from animals and humans, and are located either on the bacterial chromosome or on broad-host-range plasmids.The role of integrons in the development of multiple resistance relies on their unique capacity to cluster and express drug resistance genes.Moreover, the spread of resistance genes among different replicons and their exchange between plasmid and bacterial chromosome are facilitated by the integration of integrons into transposable elements.The association of a highly efficient gene capture and expression system, together with the capacity for vertical and horizontal transmission of resistance genes represents a powerful weapon used by bacteria to combat the assault of antibiotics. antimicrobial resistance / integron / transposon / horizontal gene transferRésumé -Importance des intégrons dans la diffusion de la résistance.Le transfert horizontal de gènes est un mécanisme efficace pour la transmission et la dissémination, parmi les agents pathogènes bactériens, de résistances multiples aux antibiotiques.L'impact des déterminants génétiques transmis horizontalement dans l'évolution de la résistance est particulièrement évident lorsque les gènes de résistance sont physiquement regroupés, et transférés en bloc à la cellule réceptrice.Des avancées récentes dans la caractérisation moléculaire des mécanismes de résistance aux antibiotiques ont mis en évidence l'existence de structures génétiques, appelées intégrons, impliqués dans l'acquisition de gènes de résistance.Ces éléments d'ADN ont été fréquemment observés dans des souches bactériennes multi-résistantes isolées chez des animaux ou chez des humains, localisés soit sur le chromosome bactérien, soit sur des plasmides à large spectre d'hôte.Le rôle des intégrons dans le développement de la multi-résistance repose sur leur capacité unique à former des clusters de gènes et à exprimer des gènes Vet.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
