Research Abstract

We determined the genetic structure of class 3 integrons in Serratia marcescens and Pseudomonas putida clinical isolates. The nucleotide regions including class 3 integron were flanked by 25bp inverted repeats and co-located with the elements such as TniA, TniB, TniQ, and TniC, which are thought to be required for the transposition of class 3 integron. Recombinant IntI3 protein was expressed in Escherichia coli, purified using column chromatography, and crystallized by hanging drop vapor diffusion method. However, we could not obtain a good X-ray diffraction data from the crystals. In Acinetobacter baumannii clinical isolates, ISAbaI was located upstream of bla_<OXA-51-like>, and apperared to provide a promoter activity for expression of adjacent bla_<OXA-51-like>.
