Chromosomal qnrB19 -carrying Escherichia coli isolated from the stool sample of a community resident in Ecuador

We identified a chromosomal gene within a transposon in a colistin-resistant strain isolated from the stool sample of an Ecuadorian resident. This finding suggests a more stable acquisition of quinolone resistance on chromosomes than that on plasmids and the potential for propagation to other DNA st...

Description
Summary:	We identified a chromosomal gene within a transposon in a colistin-resistant strain isolated from the stool sample of an Ecuadorian resident. This finding suggests a more stable acquisition of quinolone resistance on chromosomes than that on plasmids and the potential for propagation to other DNA structures.
