Chromosome- and Plasmid-Encoded β-Lactamases in Capnocytophaga spp

Abstract
Chromosome- and plasmid-encoded CfxA2 and CfxA3 β-lactamases were detected in Capnocytophaga spp. from oral sources in France, Norway, and the United States. Unidentified chromosome-encoded β-lactamases were present in Capnocytophaga sputigena . Nucleotide sequence analysis of the CfxA3-encoding plasmid from C. ochracea revealed an unreported insertion sequence (IS Coc1 ) upstream of the cfxA gene.
