Gelatinase-associated phenotypes and genotypes among clinical isolates of Enterococcus faecalis in Poland.

Polish journal of microbiology - 1 Jan 2011

Strzelecki Janusz, Hryniewicz Waleria, Sadowy Ewa

Abstract excerpt

Enterococcus faecalis is an important nosocomial pathogen causing serious invasive infections. One of the virulence factors of this pathogen, gelatinase GelE, is a protease whose gene expression is regulated by the Fsr quorum sensing system. In this study, we used a well-characterized collection of 153 clinical E. faecalis isolates to investigate the distribution of genes involved in gelatinase expression....
