Mobile colistin resistance gene mcr-1 detected on an IncI1 plasmid in Escherichia coli from meat
Objectives: Mobile colistin resistance (mcr) genes encoded on conjugative plasmids, although described only relatively recently, have been reported globally both in humans and livestock. The genes are often associated with the insertion sequence ISApl1 that can transpose the genes to novel genetic l...
