Expression of SCCmec cassette chromosome recombinases in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis.

open access: yes, 2013
OBJECTIVES: Methicillin resistance in staphylococci is mediated by the mecA gene, which is carried on the staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec). SCCmec is responsible for vertical and horizontal transfer of methicillin resistance.

Variability of Recombinase Genes and Staphylococcal Cassette Chromosome mecA of Staphylococcus Haemolyticus

open access: yesАнтибиотики и Химиотерапия, 2020
Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS), in particular Staphylococcus haemolyticus, play an important role in the etiology of nosocomial infections. Most CNS are resistant to beta-lactam antibiotics, which is realized through the production of the second ...

Molecular characterization and SCCmec typing in meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolated from clinical samples

open access: yes, 2011
Background: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is the main cause of hospital infection. The aim of present study was to investigate the molecular characteristics of Staphylococcus aureus (SA), to detect mecA gene, and to type SCCmec in ...
