Identification in Methicillin-Susceptible <i>Staphylococcus hominis</i> of an Active Primordial Mobile Genetic Element for the Staphylococcal Cassette Chromosome <i>mec</i> of Methicillin-Resistant <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i>

ABSTRACT We previously reported that the methicillin resistance gene mecA is carried by a novel type of mobile genetic element, SCC mec (staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec ), in the chromosome of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).
