Sequence Analysis of Enterococcus faecium Strain 10/96A (VanD4), the Original Vancomycin-Resistant E. faecium Strain in Brazil [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2006
ABSTRACT Enterococcus faecium strain 10/96A (VanD4) was the first vancomycin-resistant enterococcus (VRE) isolated in Brazil. Subsequent Brazilian VRE strains have all had the VanA phenotype. Multilocus sequence typing showed that strain 10/96A was isolated sporadically, has a unique sequence type (ST 281), and was ...

Enterococcus faecium Alleviates Gut Barrier Injury in C57BL/6 Mice with Dextran Sulfate Sodium-Induced Ulcerative Colitis

Gastroenterology Research and Practice, 2021
The involvement of gut microbiota composition in ulcerative colitis is strongly supported by previous research. Growing evidence suggests that probiotic therapy protects against inflammatory bowel disease in animal models and patients.

Co-diversification of Enterococcus faecium core genomes and PBP5: evidences of pbp5 horizontal transfer

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Ampicillin resistance has greatly contributed to the recent dramatic increase of a cluster of human adapted Enterococcus faecium lineages (ST17, ST18 and ST78) in hospital-based infections.

Broad‐Spectrum, Cell Envelope‐Active Marinocyclin Antibiotics From a Coral‐Derived Bacterium Are Effective Against Colistin‐Resistant Bacteria

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Marinocyclins, polycationic macrocyclic depsipeptides, were discovered by genome mining from the marine coral‐derived bacterium Aquimarina megaterium. The compounds have broad‐spectrum activity against gram‐positive and gram‐negative ESKAPE bacteria.

SCREENING OF GENES ENCODING POTENTIAL VIRULENCE FACTORS IN ENTEROCOCCUS FAECIUM AND GAP CLOSURE OF THE reppLG1 REPLICON CLASS PLASMID IN E. FAECIUM [PDF]

, 2014
The aims of this study were to obtain a circular map of a pLG1 replicon type plasmid in E. faecium (TUH 56-32), derived from the trans-conjugation between E. faecium (K60-39), donor and (BM4105-RF) recipient strains and also to detect the presence of and describe the prevalence of selected open reading frames (ORF) from a clinical and non-clinical ...

How to Be a Bad Bug: Virulence Determinants of Enterococcus faecium [PDF]

, 2018
Enterococcus faecium is a ubiquitous bacterium that only recently emerged as a nosocomial pathogen. Infections mostly affect immunocompromised patients and multi-resistance of E. faecium often hampers treatment. This thesis focuses on determinants, which

Ex-Vivo Adhesion of Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium to the Intestinal Mucosa of Healthy Beagles

Animals, 2021
Some Enterococcus faecalis and E. faecium strains are used as probiotics or feed additives. Adherence to the intestinal mucosa is considered a crucial step for intestinal bacteria to colonize and further interact with the host epithelium and the immune ...

Driving forces of vancomycin-resistant E. faecium and E. faecalis blood-stream infections in children [PDF]

Antimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control, 2014
Rates of invasive vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE) in the USA remains on the rise. Efforts to control vancomycin use and nosocomial transmission have had limited success in halting the spread of this pathogen. The role of antibiotic exposure remains a topic of controversy.
