  • Title: Prevalence of the erm(T) gene in clinical isolates of erythromycin-resistant group D Streptococcus and Enterococcus.
    Author: DiPersio LP, DiPersio JR, Frey KC, Beach JA.
    Journal: Antimicrob Agents Chemother; 2008 Apr; 52(4):1567-9. PubMed ID: 18285483.
    Abstract:
    Among 48 erythromycin-resistant group D streptococci (GDS), 36 had the erm(T) resistance gene. erm(T) was also found in 4 of 31 erythromycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium isolates. This is the first report of the erm(T) gene in U.S. GDS isolates and the first report of the erm(T) gene in enterococci.
