Extracted text: Vancomycin- resistance gene (encoded on a transposon on a plasmid) Plaşmid Staphylococcus aureus sensitive to vancomycin Enterococcus faecalis plasmid transferred by conjugation Enterococcus faecalis resistant to vancomycin Transposon jumps from one plasmid to another. Plasmid from Enterococcus faecalis is destroyed. FIGURE 1 Transfer of Vancomycin Resistance from Enterococcus faecalis to Staphylococcus aureus Transfer of resistance involved both a plasmid and a transposon. Vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus ? What role did the transposon play in the transfer of resistance?
