  • Title: Isolation and characterization of a kanamycin resistance plasmid from Staphylococcus aureus.
    Author: Stiffler PW, Sweeney HM, Schneider M, Cohen S.
    Journal: Antimicrob Agents Chemother; 1974 Oct; 6(4):516-20. PubMed ID: 4157356.
    Abstract:
    A circular covalently closed duplex deoxyribonucleic acid plasmid carrying genes for resistance to kanamycin/neomycin has been identified in Staphylococcus aureus E419. The plasmid has a molecular size of 9.2 x 10(6) daltons and can be transduced into or can transform competent susceptible strains of S. aureus to kanamycin/neomycin resistance.
