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.

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
