Transposition of Tn552-II (a Tn552 derivative) to the conjugative pCtra plasmid family in pediatric multidrug-resistant community-associated MRSA.
We report the transposition of a 9,045-bp transposon (Tn552-II) carrying the tnpABC/target-gene-like(tgl)/blaZ-R1-I array to a conjugative plasmid (pCtra) in pediatric multidrug-resistant community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. Tn552-II contained a 7-bp target site (att) on the left; an internal i-att on the right, apparently "brought-in" through a circular intermediate; and i-att2 and i-att3 in the tgl gene and its neighboring gene, respectively. This transposition enhanced ampicillin resistance and facilitated Tn552-II spread at a frequency of 10-3.
