Identification of a Genetic Determinant in Clinical Enterococcus faecium Strains That Contributes to Intestinal Colonization During Antibiotic Treatment

27 Feb 2013

Abstract excerpt

Intestinal colonization by antibiotic-resistant Enterococcus faecium is the first step in a process that can lead to infections in hospitalized patients. By comparative genome analysis and subsequent polymerase chain reaction screening, we identified a locus that encodes a putative phosphotransferase system (PTS). The PTS locus was widespread in isolates from hospital outbreaks of infection (84.2%) and...
