Resumen
Platform to capture integron cassettes. The present invention relates to a platform for capturing integron cassettes from exogenous DNA samples or from donor strains containing them. The platform includes a blind reporter system constructed by inserting an attl integration site into the toxin gene of a toxin/antitoxin system, the corresponding antitoxin gene, and the intl integrase gene. The platform can be built entirely on plasmids or include some parts in the chromosome of a Gram-negative bacteria, especially in E. coli. The invention also includes methods and kits for detecting integron cassettes using the platform. (Machine-translation by Google Translate, not legally binding)
