The molecular characterization of five clinical isolates of vanA-containing vancomycin-resistant enterococci with altered resistance to glycopeptides was examined. One strain represented an IS1216V insertion accompanied by partial deletion of the reading frame of vanX following a transposition event. The other four strains represented IS1216V within the vanX-vanY intergenic region associated with deletion of vanY or vanZ.
对五株含vanA的耐万古霉素肠球菌临床分离株进行了分子特征分析,这些菌株对糖肽类抗生素的耐药性发生了改变。一株菌株表现为IS1216V插入,伴随转座事件后vanX阅读框的部分缺失。另外四株菌株表现为vanX-vanY基因间区域内的IS1216V,与vanY或vanZ的缺失相关。
