“…Tn 558 is a 6.6-kb bacterial transposon. It was first identified on the plasmid pSCFS2 harboring ARG fexA from S. lentus , and then numerous derivatives harboring numerous ARGs were found ( Kehrenberg and Schwarz, 2005 ; Kehrenberg et al, 2007 ; Li et al, 2018 ). With a few exceptions, cfr is often harbored in the Tn558 transposon as coexisting with other ARGs, such as fexA , mecA , erm (A/B/C), tet (K/L/M), and drf (K/G) in the plasmids pSCFS3, pSCFS6, and pSCFS7 in previous studies ( Witte and Cuny, 2011 ), but in this study, the derivative of the Tn 558 transposon harbored cfr , fexA , aacA-aphD , aadD , and ble on the chromosomes.…”
