Abstract

A ca. 150-kbp Vibrio cholerae O1 biotype El Tor plasmid includes bla(CTX-M-2) and a variant of aac(6')-Ib within InV117, an orf513-bearing class 1 integron. InV117 is linked to a tnp1696 module in which IRl carries an insertion of IS4321R. The complete structure could be a potential mobile element.
