A novel integron in Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis, carrying the bla(DHA-1) gene and its regulator gene ampR, originated from Morganella morganii.


ABSTRACT: The genetic organization of the gene coding for DHA-1 and the corresponding ampR gene was determined by PCR mapping. These genes have been mobilized from the Morganella morganii chromosome and inserted into a complex sulI-type integron, similar to In6 and In7. However, they are not themselves mobile cassettes. This integron probably includes a specific site for recombination allowing the mobilization of diverse resistance genes, as observed for bla(CMY-1) and bla(MOX-1).
