Diversity of silver resistance genes in IncH incompatibility group plasmids.

Microbiology (Reading, England) - 1 Dec 2001

Gupta A, Phung L T, Taylor D E, Silver S

Abstract excerpt

Silver compounds are used as antimicrobial agents in medicine and bacteria that develop resistance to silver cations (Ag(+)) pose problems similar to those of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. The first set of Ag(+) resistance genes (sil) was from plasmid pMG101, now assigned to the IncHI incompatibility group. Questions of whether sil genes are unique to pMG101 or are more widely found, and whether they are...
