Characterization of SCCmec Instability in Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Affecting Adjacent Chromosomal Regions, Including the Gene for Staphylococcal Protein A (spa)

Staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec) represents a sequence of clear clinical and diagnostic importance in staphylococci. At a minimum the chromosomal cassette contains the mecA gene encoding PBP2a but frequently also includes additional antibiotic resistance genes (e.g., ermA and aadC; ma...
