Abstract excerpt

Methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus changes to methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) on acquisition of the staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec). At least five types of SCCmec elements have been reported. All the SCCmec elements share four common characteristics: (1) the elements carry the mec gene complex (mec); (2) they carry the ccr gene complex (ccr); (3) the elements are flanked by...
