Abstract excerpt

Bacitracin is used both in clinical practice and as an animal growth promoter in some countries. Recent reports revealed the dissemination of high-level bacitracin resistance (HLBR) in the genus Enterococcus. The bcrABD operon confers HLBR in an Enterococcus faecalis strain, and the presence of the regulator BcrR was stated as essential for this phenotype. Our objectives were to investigate the spread of the...
