Emergence of cfr-Mediated Linezolid Resistance in a Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Epidemic Clone Isolated from Patients with Cystic Fibrosis

Resistance to linezolid (LZD) in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolates from patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) is due mainly to ribosomal mutations. We report on four CF patients with LZD-resistant MRSA bronchopulmonary infections by strains carrying the cfr gene. Strains from...
