A new sulfonamide resistance gene (sul3) in Escherichia coli is widespread in the pig population of Switzerland.

Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy - 1 Mar 2003

Perreten Vincent, Boerlin Patrick

Abstract excerpt

A new gene, sul3, which specifies a 263-amino-acid protein similar to a dihydropteroate synthase encoded by the 54-kb conjugative plasmid pVP440 from Escherichia coli was characterized. Expression of the cloned sul3 gene conferred resistance to sulfamethoxazole on E. coli. Two copies of the insertion element IS15Delta/26 flanked the region containing sul3. The sul3 gene was detected in one-third of the...
