Title: PGI2 Is a Novel SGI1-Relative Multidrug-Resistant Genomic Island Characterized in Proteus mirabilis. Author: Lei CW, Chen YP, Kong LH, Zeng JX, Wang YX, Zhang AY, Wang HN. Journal: Antimicrob Agents Chemother; 2018 May; 62(5):. PubMed ID: 29463532. Abstract: A novel 61,578-bp genomic island named Proteus genomic island 2 (PGI2) was characterized in Proteus mirabilis of swine origin in China. The 23.85-kb backbone of PGI2 is related to those of Salmonella genomic island 1 and Acinetobacter genomic island 1. The multidrug resistance (MDR) region of PGI2 is a complex class 1 integron containing 14 different resistance genes. PGI2 was conjugally mobilized in trans to Escherichia coli in the presence of a conjugative IncC helper plasmid.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
