T1 - New qnr Gene Cassettes Associated with Superintegron Repeats in Vibrio cholerae O1 T2 - Emerging Infectious Disease journal PY - 2008 VL - 14 IS - 7 SP - 1129 SN - 1080-6059 AB - A novel qnr determinant emerged in ciprofloxacin-resistant Vibrio cholerae O1 from the Amazon region of Brazil. This qnrVC1 was in a typical class 1 integron. Its attC showed 89% identity with V. parahaemolyticus superintegron repeats. Analysis showed V. cholerae O1 carrying qnrVC2 associated with a V. cholerae superintegron repeat.
