REVIEW OF VIRULENCE FACTORS OF ENTEROCOCCUS: AN EMERGING NOSOCOMIAL PATHOGEN

4 Sept 2009

Abstract excerpt

Enterococcus, considered a normal commensal of intestinal tract, is fast emerging as a pathogen causing serious and life threatening hospital borne infections. This is attributed to acquisition of multi drug resistance and virulence factors of the organisms. The sequencing of Enterococcus faecalis has given a lot of insight into its genetic makeup. The E. faecalis strain V583, which has been sequenced, contains a...
