Characterization of the ends and target site of a novel tetracycline resistance-encoding conjugative transposon from enterococcus faecium 664.1H1 (2006)

Roberts, A.P., Davis, I.J., Seville, L., Villedieu, A., Mullany, P.

Enterococcus faecium 664.1H1 is multiply antibiotic resistant and mercury resistant. In this study, the genetic support for the tetracycline resistance of E. faecium 664.1H1 was characterized. The...

Genetic basis of erythromycin resistance in oral bacteria (2004)

Villedieu, A., Diaz-Torres, M.L., Roberts, A.P., Hunt, N., McNab, R., Spratt, D.A., ...

We determined the prevalence of erythromycin-resistant bacteria in the oral cavity and identified mef and erm(B) as the most common resistance determinants. In addition, we demonstrate the genetic...

Prevalence of Tetracycline Resistance Genes in Oral Bacteria

Villedieu, A., Diaz-Torres, M. L., Hunt, N., McNab, R., Spratt, D. A., Wilson, M., ...

Tetracycline is a broad-spectrum antibiotic used in humans, animals, and aquaculture; therefore, many bacteria from different ecosystems are exposed to this antibiotic. In order to determine the...

Novel Tetracycline Resistance Determinant from the Oral Metagenome

Diaz-Torres, M. L., McNab, R., Spratt, D. A., Villedieu, A., Hunt, N., Wilson, M., ...

A major drawback of most studies on how bacteria become resistant to antibiotics is that they concentrate mainly on bacteria that can be cultivated in the laboratory. In the present study, we cloned...

Determination of the Genetic Support for tet(W) in Oral Bacteriaâ–¿

Villedieu, A., Roberts, A. P., Allan, E., Hussain, H., McNab, R., Spratt, D. A., ...

The DNA sequence flanking a tet(W) gene in an oral Rothia sp. was determined. The gene was linked to two different transposases, and these were flanked by two almost identical mef (macrolide efflux)...
