Host specificity in the diversity and transfer of lsa resistance genes in group B Streptococcus.

The Journal of antimicrobial chemotherapy - 1 Dec 2015

Douarre Pierre-Emmanuel, Sauvage Elisabeth, Poyart Claire, Glaser Philippe

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: In group B Streptococcus (GBS), cross-resistance to lincosamides, streptogramin A and pleuromutilins (LSAP) is mediated by the acquisition of lsa genes. Here, we characterized the diversity, mobility and ecology of lsa genes in this species. METHODS: lsa variants were systematically identified by BLAST searches in the genomes of 531 GBS strains from different hosts and geographical origins. The...
