Identification of a plasmid-borne chloramphenicol-florfenicol resistance gene in Staphylococcus sciuri.

S Schwarz1, C Werckenthin, C Kehrenberg.   

Abstract

The 16.5-kbp plasmid pSCFS1 from Staphylococcus sciuri mediated combined resistance to chloramphenicol and florfenicol. The gene responsible for this resistance property, cfr, was cloned and sequenced. The amino acid sequence of the Cfr protein revealed no homology to known acetyltransferases or efflux proteins involved in chloramphenicol and/or florfenicol resistance or to other proteins whose functions are known.
