Enterococcus faecium Low-Affinity pbp5 Is a Transferable Determinant

Using 15 unrelated Enterococcus faecium isolates as donors, we demonstrated that ampicillin resistance was transferable to an E. faecium recipient containing a pbp5 deletion for all but four strains. The transfers occurred at low frequencies (generally ca. 10(−9) transconjugants/recipient CFU), cons...
