Transfer of Tn 5385 , a Composite, Multiresistance Chromosomal Element from Enterococcus faecalis

1 Feb 1998

Abstract excerpt

Tn5385 is a ca. 65-kb element integrated into the chromosomes of clinical Enterococcus faecalis strains CH19 and CH116. It confers resistance to erythromycin, gentamicin, mercuric chloride, streptomycin, tetracycline-minocycline, and penicillin via beta-lactamase production. Tn5385 is a composite structure containing regions previously found in staphylococcal and enterococcal plasmids. Several transposons and...
