The optrA , cfr (D) and vanA genes are co-located on linear plasmids in linezolid- and vancomycin-resistant enterococcal clinical isolates in Italy

4 Mar 2025

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: To characterize the optrA-, cfr(D)- and vanA-carrying linear plasmids detected in three MDR enterococcal clinical isolates. METHODS: Enterococcus faecium (868), E. faecium (1001) and Enterococcus faecalis (2048), which were linezolid- and vancomycin-resistant due to the presence of optrA, cfr(D) and vanA genes, were tested for their susceptibility to several antibiotics. Characterization of the...
