All tetracycline-resistant strains that hybridized with a probe specific for tet(M) gave the expected fragment when their DNA's were subject to PCR. The tet(M) gene and int-Tn, the gene encoding the protein required for the movement of Tn1545-like transposons, were always found together in tetracycline resistant strains of B. ureolyticus and U. urealvticum. In contrast, int-Tn was not detected in tet(M)-mediated tetracycline-resistant N. gonorrhoeae strains. These data suggest carriage of tet(M) by a Tn1545-like transposon in some tetracycline-resistant B. ureolyticus. © 1996 The British Society for Antimicrobial Chemotherapy Original articles nationallicence de Barbeyrac Bertille Laboratoire de Bacteriologie, Hospital Pellegrin Place Amelie-Raba-Leon, F-33076 Bordeaux cedex, France aut Dupon Michel Service de Maladies infectieuses et Medecine interne, Hospital Pellegrin Place Amelie-Raba-Leon, F-33076 Bordeaux cedex, France aut Rodriguez Patricia Laboratoire de Bacteriologie, Hospital Pellegrin Place Amelie-Raba-Leon, F-33076 Bordeaux cedex, France aut Renaudin Hélène Laboratoire de Bacteriologie, Hospital Pellegrin Place Amelie-Raba-Leon, F-33076 Bordeaux cedex, France aut Bébéar Christiane Laboratoire de Bacteriologie, Hospital Pellegrin Place Amelie-Raba-Leon, F-33076 Bordeaux cedex, France aut Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy Oxford University Press 37/2(1996-02), 223-232 0305-7453 37:2<223 1996 37 jac https://doi.org/10.1093/jac/37.2.223 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI 1 research-article jats NATIONALLICENCE 856 40 https://doi.org/10.1093/jac/37.2.223 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI NATIONALLICENCE 700 1- de Barbeyrac Bertille Laboratoire de Bacteriologie, Hospital Pellegrin Place Amelie-Raba-Leon, F-33076 Bordeaux cedex, France aut NATIONALLICENCE 700 1- Dupon Michel Service de Maladies infectieuses et Medecine interne, Hospital Pellegrin Place Amelie-Raba-Leon, F-33076 Bordeaux cedex, France aut NATIONALLICENCE 700 1- Rodriguez Patricia Laboratoire de Bacteriologie, Hospital Pellegrin Place Amelie-Raba-Leon, F-33076 Bordeaux cedex, France aut NATIONALLICENCE 700 1- Renaudin Hélène Laboratoire de Bacteriologie, Hospital Pellegrin Place Amelie-Raba-Leon, F-33076 Bordeaux cedex, France aut NATIONALLICENCE 700 1- Bébéar Christiane Laboratoire de Bacteriologie, Hospital Pellegrin Place Amelie-Raba-Leon, F-33076 Bordeaux cedex, France aut NATIONALLICENCE 773 0- Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy Oxford University Press 37/2(1996-02), 223-232 0305-7453 37:2<223 1996 37 jac Metadata rights reserved CC BY-NC-4.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 nationallicence BK010053 XK010053 XK010000 NATIONALLICENCE NATIONALLICENCE NL-oxford
