Detection of the novel vga(E) gene in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus CC398 isolates from cattle and poultry

19 Oct 2011

Abstract excerpt

Sir, The genes vga(A) and vga(C)1 and the most recently identified gene, vga(E),2 as well as the gene cfr, mediate transferable resistance to pleuromutilins in staphylococci.3 The vga genes encode ABC transporters, which also export streptogramin A antibiotics and lincosamides, and the cfr gene encodes a methyltransferase that confers additional resistance to phenicols, lincosamides, oxazolidinones and...
