Comparison of Tn <i>1546</i> -Like Elements in Vancomycin-Resistant <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> Isolates from Michigan and Pennsylvania

23 Dec 2004

Abstract excerpt

In 2002, the first two clinical isolates of vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (VRSA) containing vanA were recovered in Michigan and Pennsylvania. Tn1546, a mobile genetic element that encodes high-level vancomycin resistance in enterococci, was present in both isolates. With PCR and DNA sequence analysis, we compared the Tn1546 elements from each isolate to the prototype Tn1546 element. The Michigan VRSA...
