Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: To determine the complete nucleotide sequence of the novel Johannesburg β-lactamase-encoding gonococcal plasmid (pEM1) and to determine the strain relatedness of Johannesburg plasmid-containing penicillinase-producing Neisseria gonorrhoeae (PPNG) by molecular typing. METHODS: Eleven PPNG isolates containing the Johannesburg β-lactamase-encoding plasmid were previously identified among gonococci...
