TL;DR: Finding of acquired resistance genes in isolates intended for probiotic or nutritional use highlights the importance of antimicrobial susceptibility testing in documenting the safety of commercial LAB.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aminoglycoside-Streptothricin Resistance Gene Cluster aadE–sat4–aphA-3 Disseminated among Multiresistant Isolates of Enterococcus faecium
TL;DR: Seventy-two Enterococcus faecium isolates of different origins highly resistant to nourseothricin and streptomycin were studied and a genomic fragment from two isolates identified a gene cluster, aadE–sat4–aphA-3, which has been isolated recently in staphylococci and Campylobacter coli.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of Transferable Genetic Determinants on the Outcome of Typing Methods Commonly Used for Enterococcus faecium
TL;DR: The more-modern AFLP approach produces patterns of comparable discriminatory power while possessing some advantages over PFGE (less-time-consuming internal standards).
Journal ArticleDOI
The newly described msrC gene is not equally distributed among all isolates of Enterococcus faecium.
TL;DR: The msrC gene possesses 53 to 62% identity with a staphylococcal gene, msr(A) , encoding an ABC porter for macrolide and streptogramin B antibiotics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Linkage of erm(B) and aadE-sat4-aphA-3 in multiple-resistant Enterococcus faecium isolates of different ecological origins.
TL;DR: Enterococcus faecium shares its antibiotic resistance gene pool with various Gram-positive bacteria and a gene cluster aadE-sat4-aphA-3, which was first described in staphylococci, has been recently identified also in E. Faecium.
