Dissemination among staphylococci of DNA sequences associated with methicillin resistance.

Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy - 1 Mar 1994

Archer G L, Niemeyer D M, Thanassi J A, Pucci M J

Abstract excerpt

DNA probes consisting of pUC19 containing cloned Staphylococcus aureus chromosomal fragments were constructed from two methicillin-resistant S. aureus strains with different DNA sequences 5' to mecA, the gene that mediates methicillin resistance. The probe from one strain, BMS1, contained a portion of the regulatory sequences (the terminal 641 bp of mecR1 and all of mecI) associated with the induction and...
