Whole-genome sequencing analysis of Vancomycin-resistant isolates from the Frankfurt metropolitan region revealed that 78/94 isolates were MLST type ST117, cgMLST complex type CT71 with a common B chromosomal insertion site. This indicates circulation of a single VRE clone in a catchment area of 5,000-km with 3 million inhabitants.
对来自法兰克福大都市区的万古霉素耐药分离株进行全基因组测序分析表明,94 株分离株中有 78 株为 ST117 型 MLST、CT71 型 cgMLST 复合体,具有共同的 B 染色体插入位点。这表明在一个拥有 300 万居民、面积达 5000 平方公里的集水区中,存在一种单一的 VRE 克隆的传播。
