Isolation of Enterococcus faecium and determination of its mechanism for promoting the growth and development of Drosophila

Scientific Reports, 2023
Intestinal symbiotic microorganisms have a strong capacity to regulate the physiological functions of their host, and Drosophila serves as a useful model. Enterococcus faecium (E. faecium) is a member of the normal intestinal flora of animals.

Differences in Outcomes for Patients with Bacteremia Due to Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococcus faecium or Vancomycin-Susceptible E. faecium [PDF]

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1996
To determine the differences in outcome in cases of enterococcal bacteremia due to vancomycin-resistant organisms, we compared consecutive patients on a liver transplant service who had clinically significant bacteremia due to vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VREF) (n = 54) with a contemporaneous cohort of patients who had vancomycin ...

Does Vancomycin Resistance Increase Mortality? Clinical Outcomes and Predictive Factors for Mortality in Patients with Enterococcus faecium Infections

Antibiotics, 2021
The prevalence of enterococcal infection, especially E. faecium, is increasing, and the issue of the impact of vancomycin resistance on clinical outcomes is controversial.

ccrAB Ent serine recombinase genes are widely distributed in the Enterococcus faecium and Enterococcus casseliflavus species groups and are expressed in E. faecium [PDF]

Microbiology, 2010
The presence, distribution and expression of cassette chromosome recombinase (ccr) genes, which are homologous to the staphylococcalccrABgenes and are designatedccrABEntgenes, were examined in enterococcal isolates (n=421) representing 13 different species. A total of 118 (28 %) isolates were positive forccrABEntgenes by PCR, and a number of these were

RNase 7 contributes to the cutaneous defense against Enterococcus faecium. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2009
BackgroundHuman skin is able to mount a fast response against invading microorganisms by the release of antimicrobial proteins such as the ribonuclease RNase 7. Because RNase 7 exhibits high activity against Enterococcus faecium the aim of this study was

Synthesis of E. faecium wall teichoic acid fragments

Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry, 2016
The first synthesis of different Enterococcus faecium wall teichoic acid (WTA) fragments is presented. The structure of these major cell wall components was elucidated recently and it was shown that these glycerolphosphate (GroP) based polymers are built up from -6-(GalNAc-α(1-3)-GalNAc-β(1-2)-GroP)- repeating units.
