Investigating the prevalence of CRISPR-Cas system and their association with antibiotic resistance genes and virulence factors in Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium strains isolated from hospitalized patients

Investigating the prevalence of CRISPR-Cas system and their association with antibiotic resistance genes and virulence factors in Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium strains isolated from hospitalized patients

Objectives: Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium are Gram-positive opportunistic pathogens that rank among the leading causes of nosocomial infections worldwide. This study investigates the prevalence and role of CRISPR-Cas systems in modulating antimicrobial resistance and virulence facto...
