AI Article Synopsis
- IncA/C plasmids in Salmonella enterica serovars Senftenberg and Ohio contain a unique cassette configuration within a class 1 integron, along with five resistance genes (aacC4, aphA1, hph, sul2, and tetA(D)).
- A deletion in the 5' conserved segment and orfF cassette resulted in an array featuring a partial orfF linked to the aadA2 cassette.
- While the IncA/C plasmids couldn't be recovered via conjugation, some strains did carry additional conjugative resistance plasmids.
Article Abstract
IncA/C plasmids carrying an unusual cassette configuration in a class 1 integron and five further shared resistance genes, aacC4, aphA1, hph, sul2, and tetA(D) were found in Salmonella enterica serovars Senftenberg and Ohio. A deletion formed using a short region of homology in the 5' conserved segment and the orfF cassette created an array with only part of orfF followed by the aadA2 cassette. The IncA/C plasmids were not recoverable by conjugation, but additional conjugative resistance plasmids were present in some strains.
