Reduction in Glycopeptide Resistance in Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococci as a Result of vanA Cluster Rearrangements

The molecular characterization of five clinical isolates of vanA-containing vancomycin-resistant enterococci with altered resistance to glycopeptides was examined. One strain represented an IS1216V insertion accompanied by partial deletion of the reading frame of vanX following a transposition event...
