Genetic diversity of Tn916-related transposons among drug-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae isolates colonizing healthy children in Venezuela.

Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy - 1 Oct 2011

Abstract excerpt

Among a collection of 48 multidrug-resistant pneumococcal strains colonizing healthy children in a small municipality of Mérida, Venezuela, we identified sequence types (STs) related to a variety of internationally spreading drug-resistant clones, as well as ST135, thus far isolated only in Europe. The clones invariably harbored one or more of the Tn916-related transposons Tn3872, Tn5253, Tn6002, Tn2009, and...
