Strains used in the experimental part of the work.

Strains Relevant Phenotype or Genotype Sequence Type Source or Reference
S. suis
NSUI029 Wild-type (WT) pig isolate devoid of Tn5252 element at the rplL site (but carrying an element of the Tn1549 family at this site), TetS 1 and EryS 2 ST28 [40]
NSUI029 (pMG36c) NSUI029 carrying pMG36c, a plasmid conferring chloramphenicol resistance, CmR 3 ST28 This work
NSUI084 WT pig isolate carrying putative ICEs of the Tn1549 (ICE_SSuNSUI084_rplL_1) and the Tn5252 (ICE_SsuNSUI084_rplL_2) families. The latter hosts an IME (IME_SsuNSUI084_SNF2) that carries a tet(O) gene, TetR 1 ST28 [40]
NSUI086 WT pig isolate carrying a putative ICE of the Tn5252 family (ICE_SsuNSUI086_rplL) which hosts an IME (IME_SsuNSUI086_PPI) that carries a tet(O) and an erm(B) gene, TetR 1 and EryR 2 ST28 [40]
S. salivarius
JIM8777 WT commensal strain with an empty rplL site [41]
JIM8777 (pMG36e) JIM8777 carrying pMG36e, a plasmid conferring erythromycin resistance, EryR 2 [42]
S. thermophilus
LMG18311 WT strain with empty rplL site BCCM/LMG
LMG18311 (pMG36e) LMG18311 carrying pMG36e, a plasmid conferring erythromycin resistance, EryR 2 [43]
JIM8232 WT strain carrying a putative ICE of the Tn5252 family in the rplL gene and IMEs in the rpsI, tRNALys and tRNALeu genes. [44]
JIM8232 (pMG36e) JIM8232 carrying pMG36e, a plasmid conferring erythromycin resistance, EryR 2 This work
Enterococcus faecalis [43]
JH2-2 (pMG36e) JH2-2 carrying the plasmid pMG36e conferring erythromycin resistance, EryR 2

1 TetS or R, susceptibility or resistance to tetracycline; 2 EryS or R, susceptibility or resistance to erythromycin; 3 CmR, resistance to chloramphenicol.
