Functional and physiological characterization of the Tn21 cassette for resistance genes in Tn2426.

Journal of general microbiology - 1 May 1993

Zühlsdorf M T, Wiedemann B

Abstract excerpt

The Tn21 subgroup of class II transposons plays an important role in the dissemination of resistance genes and especially in the epidemic spread of multi-resistance. This ability reflects the variety of resistance genes that associate with the streptomycin/spectinomycin-resistance gene (aadA) of Tn21. Deletion experiments with Tn2426, a typical member of the Tn21 subgroup, and sequencing of the region that...
