Abstract: Streptomyces rochei 7434AN4 produces two structurally unrelated polyketide antibiotics, lankacidin and lankamycin, and carries three linear plasmids, pSLA2-L (211 kb), -M (113 kb), and -S (18 kb), whose nucleotide sequences were previously reported. The complete nucleotide sequence of… read more here.

Abstract: ABSTRACT Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium are frequent causes of healthcare-associated infections. Antimicrobial-resistant enterococci pose a serious public health threat, particularly vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE), for which treatment options are limited. The Centers for Disease Control… read more here.

Abstract: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) of bacterial pathogens, including enterococci, is a global concern, and plasmids are crucial for spreading and maintaining AMR genes. Plasmids with linear topology were identified recently in clinical multidrug-resistant enterococci. ABSTRACT Antimicrobial… read more here.
