چکیده انگلیسی
The cfr gene associated with linezolid resistance has attracted wide attention. However, little is known about its prevalence and mode of transmission in Enterococcus faecalis. In this study, we investigate the prevalence and genetic environment of the cfr gene in 91 E. faecalis isolates collected from swine faecal swabs in 30 farms in Guangdong Province, China in 2012. A relatively high prevalence of cfr was identified in E. faecalis isolates (11/91, 12.1%) by PCR. All the cfr-positive E. faecalis strains had a multidrug-resistance phenotype including erythrocin, tetracycline, gentamicin, kanamicin and ciprofloxacin, except vancomycin and linezolid. Molecular typing indicated that ST475 and ST16 were the most common types in cfr-positive E. faecalis strains. In addition, we demonstrated that all the cfr genes were located on plasmids by S1-PFGE and Southern blotting. A 12â¯kb cfr-positive plasmid (pE30) was identified in most (9/11) E. faecalis strains, but it couldn't mediate resistance to linezolid in the transconjugant. Sequence analysis showed that the pE30 was a pCPPF5-like plasmid and the region surrounding the cfr gene was the same as a cfr-carrying ISEnfa5-composite element in Streptococcus plasmid pStrcfr with 4â¯bp direct repeat (GTAT) on both sides. In conclusion, the cfr gene which had no linezolid resistance phenotype was present in multidrug-resistance E. faecalis strains, and the clonal spread of ST475 and ST16 strains and the horizontal transfer of the pCPPF5-like plasmids have contributed to the dissemination of cfr.
