Antibiotic and antiseptic resistance genes are linked on a novel mobile genetic element: Tn6087.

The Journal of antimicrobial chemotherapy - 1 Oct 2011

Ciric Lena, Mullany Peter, Roberts Adam P

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: Tn916-like elements are one of the most common types of integrative and conjugative element (ICE). In this study we aimed to determine whether novel accessory genes, i.e. genes whose products are not involved in mobility or regulation, were present on a Tn916-like element (Tn6087) isolated from Streptococcus oralis from the human oral cavity. METHODS: A minocycline-resistant isolate was analysed using...
