A Novel Putative Enterococcal Pathogenicity Island Linked to the esp Virulence Gene of Enterococcus faecium and Associated with Epidemicity

Enterococcus faecalis harbors a virulence-associated surface protein encoded by the esp gene. This gene has been shown to be part of a 150-kb putative pathogenicity island. A gene similar to esp has recently been found in Enterococcus faecium isolates recovered from hospitalized patients. In the pre...
