Specificity of induction of the vanA and vanB operons in vancomycin-resistant enterococci by telavancin

PMID: 204041172010

Key Findings

Telavancin induces the expression of vanA but not vanB operons in vancomycin-resistant enterococci, with vanA-type strains showing higher resistance to vancomycin and teicoplanin compared to vanB-type strains.
