Inter- and Intraspecies Transfer of a <i>Clostridium difficile</i> Conjugative Transposon Conferring Resistance to MLS <sub>B</sub>

23 Jul 2014

Abstract excerpt

Resistance to the macrolide-lincosamide-streptogramin B group of antibiotics in Clostridium difficile is generally due to erm(B) genes. Tn6194, a conjugative transposon initially detected in PCR-ribotype 027 isolates, is an erm(B)-containing element also detected in other relevant C. difficile PCR-ribotypes. In this study, the genome of a C. difficile PCR-ribotype 001 strain was sequenced, and an element with two...
