Interspecies recombination between enterococci: genetic and phenotypic diversity of vancomycin-resistant transconjugants.

Microbial drug resistance (Larchmont, N.Y.) - 1 Jan 1999

McAshan S K, Vergin K L, Giovannoni S J, Thaler D S

Abstract excerpt

Handwerger and colleagues demonstrated that a particular clinical isolate of Enterococcus faecium, designated GUC, and here redesignated as GUCR, can conjugatively transfer vancomycin resistance. The vancomycin resistance is encoded by a chromosomally born linked set of genes in the donor, designated the vanA cluster, to the chromosome of an E. faecalis recipient, JH2-2. Here it is reported that an earlier...
