Aminoglycoside riboswitch control of the expression of integron associated aminoglycoside resistance adenyltransferases
The proliferation of antibiotic resistance has its origins in horizontal gene transfer. The class 1 integrons mediate gene transfer by assimilating antibiotic-resistance genes through site-specific recombination. For the class 1 integrons the first assimilated gene normally encodes an aminoglycoside...

The proliferation of antibiotic resistance has its origins in horizontal gene transfer. The class 1 integrons mediate gene transfer by assimilating antibiotic-resistance genes through site-specific recombination. For the class 1 integrons the first assimilated gene normally encodes an aminoglycoside antibiotic resistance protein which is either an aminoglycoside acetyltransferase (AAC), nucleotidyltransferase – (ANT), or adenyl transferase (AAD). An aminoglycoside-sensing riboswitch RNA in the leader RNA of AAC/AAD that controls the expression of aminoglycoside resistance genes has been previously described. Here we explore the relationship between the recombinant products of integron recombination and a series of candidate riboswitch RNAs in the 5ʹ UTR of aad (aminoglycoside adenyltransferases) genes. The RNA sequences from the 5ʹ UTR of the aad genes from pathogenic strains that are the products of site-specific DNA recombination by class 1 integrons were investigated. Reporter assays, MicroScale Thermophoresis (MST) and covariance analysis revealed that a functional aminoglycoside-sensing riboswitch was selected at the DNA level through integron-mediated site-specific recombination. This study explains the close association between integron recombination and the aminoglycoside-sensing riboswitch RNA. |
