Vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) are increasingly important nosocomial pathogens and screening for colonization status is a mainstay in infection control. We implemented PCR-based screening during vanA-positive Enterococcus faecium outbreaks in four university hospitals in Copenhagen, Denmark. Xpert®vanA/vanB was performed directly on rectal swabs and the vanA PCR result was used to guide...
Vancomycin-resistant enterococci acquire high-level resistance to glycopeptide antibiotics through the synthesis of peptidoglycan terminating in D-alanyl-D-lactate. A key enzyme in this process is a D-alanyl-D-alanine ligase homologue, VanA or VanB, which preferentially catalyzes the synthesis of the depsipeptide D-alanyl-D-lactate. We report the overexpression, purification, and enzymatic char...
The mechanism of high-level resistance to vancomycin in enterococci consists of the synthesis of peptidoglycan terminating in D-alanyl-D-lactate instead of the usual D-alanyl-D-alanine. This alternate cell wall biosynthesis pathway is ensured by the collective actions of three enzymes: VanH, VanA, and VanX. The origin of this resistance mechanism is unknown. We have cloned three genes encoding ...
زمینه و هدف: انتروکوک ها جزء فلور طبیعی دستگاه گوارش انسان می باشند، ولی تحت شرایطی می توانند باعث عفونت شوند و نقش مهمی در پخش ژن های مقاومت و ایجاد سویه های مقاوم به آنتی بیوتیک دارند. با افزایش استفاده از آنتی بیوتیک ونکومایسین، انتروکوک های مقاوم به وانکومایسین (vre)یکی از پاتوژن های شایع بیمارستانی در سراسر دنیا هستند. ﺍﻳﻦ ﻣﻄﺎﻟﻌﻪ با هدف ﺑﺮﺭﺳﻰ شیوع و فراوانی ژن های ﻣﻘﺎﻭﻣﺖ ﺩﺭ ﺳﻄﺢ ﻓﻨﻮﺗﻴﭙﻰ ﻭ ...
Sir, Vancomycin-resistant enterococci constitute an increasing clinical problem in the USA, and clonal dissemination of vancomycin-resistant isolates among hospitals, especially Enterococcus faecium, has been described. In Europe, detection of vanA enterococci in the clinical setting is less frequently reported and few reports exist of clonal dissemination of resistant isolates among different ...
We have previously identified, in Paenibacillus popilliae, a 708-bp sequence which has homology to the sequence of the enterococcal vanA gene. We have performed further studies revealing five genes encoding homologues of VanY, VanZ, VanH, VanA, and VanX in P. popilliae. The predicted amino acid sequences are similar to those in VanA vancomycin-resistant enterococci: 61% identity for VanY, 21% f...
The goal of this study was to assess the presence of enterococci species presenting van-mediated glycopeptide resistance in French cattle. Fecal samples were collected from healthy and sick animals, and enterococci were screened for vancomycin resistance. Vancomycin resistance was principally encountered in Enterococcus gallinarum and Enterococcus casseliflavus strains. However, glycopeptide re...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Infection with vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) has caused a therapeutic problem. VanA and VanB resistant types are the predominant phenotypes among vancomycin resistant enetrococci. Transposon 1546 (Tn1546) harboring the vanA gene cluster, plays an important role in the horizontal transfer of vanA gene. In this study, we examined the phenotypic and genotypic div...
Surveillance cultures for vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) are time-consuming and expensive for the laboratory to perform. Therefore, we investigated the use of PCR as an alternative method of detecting and identifying VRE directly in fecal samples. PCR primers directed to vanA, vanB, vanC1, vanC2, and enterococcal ligase genes were used to detect and identify VRE in fecal material obtain...
زمینه و اهداف: باکتری های گرم مثبت مخصوصا کوکس های گرم مثبت مانند استافیلوکوک های کواگولاز منفی، استافیلوکوکوس اورئوس و انتروکوک، پاتوژن های بسیار مهمی در محیط بیمارستان می باشند. اما با پیدایش مقاومت نسبت به ونکومایسین در انتروکوک و ظهور استافیلوکوک های مقاوم به متی سیلین با حساسیت کاهش یافته نسبت به ونکومایسین، مشکلات درمانی این باکتری ها نیز بیشتر شده است. لذا این مطالعه جهت تعیین فراوانی سو...
