The diversity of inducible and constitutively expressed erm(C) genes and association to different replicon types in staphylococci plasmids

The aim of this study was to analyze the diversity of the macrolide resistance gene, erm(C) in relation to structural alterations affecting the gene expression. In addition, the association of erm(C) to mobile genetic elements (MGEs) in staphylococci mainly from Danish pigs was investigated. In tota...
