The Enterococcus Cassette Chromosome, a Genomic Variation Enabler in Enterococci

Enterococcus faecium has a highly variable genome prone to recombination and horizontal gene transfer. Here, we have identified a novel genetic island with an insertion locus and mobilization genes similar to those of staphylococcus cassette chromosome elements SCCmec. This novel element termed the...
