MLST, multilocus sequence type.
Known or putative antibiotic resistance gene. AR, antibiotic resistance. tetK, gene encoding tetracycline efflux MFS transporter; aad(6), gene encoding streptomycin aminoglycoside 6-adenyltransferase; fmhA, gene encoding aminoacyltransferase possibly involved in methicillin and lysostaphin resistance; ant(4), gene encoding aminoglycoside nucleotidyltransferase; abc, gene encoding ABC transporter (may be involved in drug resistance; multiple abc genes are present in appropriate plasmids).
If more than one bacterial species is present, one plasmid is given for each of them; plasmids with overall nucleotide sequence identity less than 75% are noted as novel. NA, not performed.
Nearest ST; no match with the arcC gene was found.
