Novel class 1 integron (InS21) carrying blaCTX-M-2 in Salmonella enterica serovar infantis

Antimicrob Agents Chemother. 2002 Jul;46(7):2257-61. doi: 10.1128/AAC.46.7.2257-2261.2002.

Abstract

The genetic organization of the region coding for CTX-M-2 in Salmonella enterica serovar Infantis was determined by PCR mapping. This gene seems to have been mobilized from the Kluyvera ascorbata chromosome to a complex sulI-type integron, similar to In6 and In7.
