Identification of chromosomal mobile element conferring high-level vancomycin resistance in Enterococcus faecium

1 Nov 1995

Abstract excerpt

A clinical isolate of Enterococcus faecium that contains a chromosomally encoded vanA gene cluster, Tn1546::IS1251, transferred vancomycin resistance to the plasmid-free strain Enterococcus faecalis JH2-2 during filter matings. Hybridization of a vanHAXY probe to SmaI restriction-digested genomic DNA separated by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis showed that the vanA gene cluster was located on a 40-kb fragment in...
