A novel mosaic tetracycline resistance gene <i>tet</i> (S/M) detected in a multidrug-resistant pneumococcal CC230 lineage that underwent capsular switching in South Africa

2019-07-30

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Synopsis</h4> <h4>Objective</h4> We reported a novel tetracycline-resistant gene in Streptococcus pneumoniae and investigated its temporal spread in relation to nationwide clinical interventions. <h4>Methods</h4> We whole genome sequenced 12,254 pneumococcal isolates from twenty-nine countries on an Illumina HiSeq Sequencer. Serotypes, sequence types and antibiotic resistance were inferred from genomes. P...
