Abstract
A patient with a history of UTI acquired an isolate of Staphylococcus saprophyticus that was resistant to clindamycin, streptogramin A, pleuromutilins (LSPs), and oxacillin. A plasmid-located vga variant was identified in this pathogen, and the encoded protein showed a 39% to 67% identity to other previously characterized vga.
