A total of 46 gram-positive bacteria isolated from clinical specimens collected in China were subjected to PCR analysis with the intI1-specific primers, and the intI1-positive strains were further analyzed for their resistance gene cassette. All isolates possessed the class 1 integron in their genomes and the array of gene cassettes was dhfrXII-orfF-aadA2, which is very similar to other organisms except in one isolate carrying an additional copy of the class 1 integron containing the aadA2 gene cassette. Altogether, the results indicate that the class 1 integron is widespread in gram-positive clinical strains isolated in Guangzhou, China.
对从中国收集的临床标本中分离出的46株革兰氏阳性菌,使用intI1特异性引物进行PCR分析,并对intI1阳性菌株进一步分析其抗性基因盒。所有分离株的基因组中均含有1类整合子,基因盒阵列是dhfrXII-orfF-aadA2,这与其他菌株非常相似,只是有一株分离株携带了一个额外的含有aadA2基因盒的1类整合子拷贝。总体而言,结果表明1类整合子在中国广州分离的革兰氏阳性临床菌株中广泛存在。
