Characterization of the vanD glycopeptide resistance gene cluster from Enterococcus faecium BM4339.
PMID 10368136 · 1999The study characterizes the vanD glycopeptide resistance gene cluster in Enterococcus faecium BM4339, identifying several genes including vanD, vanH, vanX, vanY, vanR, and vanS, which collectively confer resistance to glycopeptide antibiotics through the synthesis of d-alanyl-d-lactate-terminating peptidoglycan precursors.
