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
These findings suggest that CRISPR-Cas systems may influence the resistance and virulence profiles of clinical Enterococcus isolates, potentially impacting their pathogenicity and adaptability.
