Presence of mefA and mefE genes in Streptococcus agalactiae.

C Arpin¹, H Daube, F Tessier, C Quentin.

Abstract

Eighteen unrelated clinical isolates of Streptococcus agalactiae with the M phenotype harbored an mef gene. DNA sequencing showed that one of nine strains contained mefA (producing one amino acid substitution), whereas the remaining eight carried mefE (identity, 100%). Restriction analysis of PCR products indicated that the nine other strains also contained mefE.
