The vanB gene of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecalis V583 is structurally related to genes encoding D-Ala:D-Ala ligases and glycopeptide-resistance proteins VanA and VanC.

Abstract

We report the cloning and sequencing of a 632-bp amplified fragment internal to the vanB gene of vancomycin-resistant (VmR) Enterococcus (En.) faecalis V583. The DNA fragment hybridized to VmR strains of En. faecium and En. faecalis, but not to their susceptible derivatives.
