A novel resistance reversion mechanism in a vancomycin-variableEnterococcus faeciumstrain

Abstract: Objectives: To investigate an outbreak of Enterococcus faecium in a hospital haematology ward and uncover the mechanism of a vancomycin resistance phenotype-genotype disparity in an isolate from this outbreak. Methods: Whole genome shotgun sequencing was used for the phylogenetic analysis of E. faecium isolates (n = 39) and to identify the carriage of antibiotic resistance genes. A long-read sequencing approach was adopted to identify structural variations in the vancomycin resistance region of a vancomycin-va… Show more
