Genomic analysis of multi-drug resistant coagulase-negative staphylococci from healthy humans and animals revealed unusual mechanisms of resistance and CRISPR-Cas system

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) are evolving as major reservoirs and vectors of unusual and critical antimicrobial resistance (AMR) mechanisms. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this study, the genomic characterization of 26 multidrug-resistant (MDR)-CoNS (S. borealis, S. saprophyticus, S. sciuri, S. hominis, S. epidermidis, S. pasteuri, S. hyicus, S. simulans, S. haemolyticus, and S. arlettae)...
