Salmonella genomic island 1 (SGI1) is an integrative mobilizable element integrated into the chromosome of bacteria, which plays an important role in the dissemination of antimicrobial resistance genes. Lots of SGI1 variants are found mainly in Salmonella enterica and Proteus mirabilis. In this study, a total of 157 S. enterica and 132 P. mirabilis strains were collected from food-producing animals in Sichuan Province of China between December 2016 and November 2017. Detection of the SGI1 integrase gene showed that three S. enterica and five P. mirabilis strains were positive for SGI1, which displayed different multidrug resistance profiles. Five different SGI1 variants, including two novel variants (SGI1-PmBC1123 and SGI1-PmSC1111), were characterized by whole genome sequencing and PCR linkage. In two novel SGI1 variants, IS26-mediated rearrangements resulted in large sequence inversions of the MDR regions extending outside the SGI1 backbone. The sul3-type III class 1 integron (5'CS-sat-psp-aadA2-cmlA1-aadA1-qacH-IS440-sul3) and gene cassettes aac(6')-Ib-cr-bla OXA- 1-catB3-arr-3 are found in SGI1-PmSC1111. Mobilization experiments indicated that three known variants were conjugally mobilized in trans to Escherichia coli with the help of a conjugative IncC plasmid. However, the two novel variants seemed to lose the mobilization, which might result from the sequence inversion of partial SGI1 backbone. The identification of the two novel SGI1 variants in this study suggested that IS26-mediated rearrangements promote the diversity of SGI1.

NIH genetic sequence database that provides annotated collection of all publicly available DNA sequences for almost 280 000 formally described species (Jan 2014) .These sequences are obtained primarily through submissions from individual laboratories and batch submissions from large-scale sequencing projects, including whole-genome shotgun (WGS) and environmental sampling projects. Most submissions are made using web-based BankIt or standalone Sequin programs, and GenBank staff assigns accession numbers upon data receipt. It is part of International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration and daily data exchange with European Nucleotide Archive (ENA) and DNA Data Bank of Japan (DDBJ) ensures worldwide coverage. GenBank is accessible through NCBI Entrez retrieval system, which integrates data from major DNA and protein sequence databases along with taxonomy, genome, mapping, protein structure and domain information, and biomedical journal literature via PubMed. BLAST provides sequence similarity searches of GenBank and other sequence databases. Complete bimonthly releases and daily updates of GenBank database are available by FTP.
