Transduction of penicilinase plasmids within community-acquiredmethicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus USA 300 clone
2011
Two penicillinase plasmids from four different donor strains
were transduced to a recipient strain. High frequencies of
transduction were observer both in propagated as well as
induced phage lysates. The presence of plasmids in phage
particles and the frequency of their transfer by transduction
were studied by real-time PCR. These results have shown
efficient transfer of resistance plasmids between strains of
USA300 clone. Moreover, recently isolated phage phiJB proved
outstanding transduction ability and has been chosen for
further molecular analysis including whole-genome sequencing.
