Mobilisation of plasmid-mediated blaVEB-1 gene cassette into distinct genomic islands of Proteus mirabilis after ceftazidime exposure

ABSTRACT: Objectives: We sought to integrate a VEB-1-encoding gene cassette into the integron of the MDR region of genomic islands (GIs) harboured by Proteus mirabilis strains after antibiotic exposure. Methods: An IncP1 plasmid from Achromobacter xylosoxidans carrying the cassette array dfrA14–bla...
