Dissemination of the Same cfr -Carrying Plasmid among Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Coagulase-Negative Staphylococcal Isolates in China
14 Apr 2015
Abstract excerpt
Six cfr-harboring methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolates, which belonged to the same clone of sequence type 5 (ST5)-staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec element II (SCCmec II)-spa t311, were investigated in this study. Complete sequencing of a cfr-carrying plasmid, pLRSA417, revealed an 8,487-bp fragment containing a Tn4001-like transposon, cfr, orf1, and ISEnfa4. This segment, first...
