Transfer of Vancomycin Resistance Transposon Tn 1549 from Clostridium symbiosum to Enterococcus spp. in the Gut of Gnotobiotic Mice

22 Feb 2006

Abstract excerpt

The vancomycin resistance vanB2 gene cluster is disseminated worldwide and has been found in phylogenetically remote bacterial genera. The vanB2 operon is part of conjugative transposons Tn1549/Tn5382, but conjugative transposition of these elements has not been demonstrated. We have obtained transfer of a Tn1549-like element (referred to herein as "Tn1549-like") from Clostridium symbiosum MLG101 to Enterococcus...
