Genetic characteristics of VanA-type vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium in Cuba.

ABSTRACT: VanA-type vancomycin-resistant enterococci isolates from bloodstream infections in Cuba were genetically characterized. Enterococcus faecalis isolates were assigned to sequence type (ST) 28, closely related to Eastern Europe, while Enterococcus faecium belonged to ST262, ST656 and ST1349, and showed different genetic profiles.
