Tcr Emr 7853, from Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron 7853, is a large chromosomal conjugative transposon which encodes resistance to both tetracycline (Tcr) and erythromycin (Emr). The erythromycin resistance gene of Tcr Emr 7853 did not cross-hybridize with ermF, the Emr gene found on previously studied Bacteroides regular and conjugative transposons. We have cloned and sequenced the erythromycin resistance gene from Tcr Emr 7853. The DNA sequence of this gene was 99.6% identical to that of ermG from Bacillus sphaericus.
来自嗜热栖热放线菌7853的Tcr Emr 7853是一种大型染色体接合转座子,它编码对四环素(Tcr)和红霉素(Emr)的抗性。Tcr Emr 7853的红霉素抗性基因与ermF没有交叉杂交,ermF是先前研究的普通拟杆菌和接合转座子上发现的Emr基因。我们已经从Tcr Emr 7853中克隆并测序了红霉素抗性基因。该基因的DNA序列与球形芽孢杆菌的ermG的DNA序列有99.6%的同一性。
