Abstract
We used sequencing and PCR mapping to investigate the regions flanking the
bla
CMY-2
β-lactamase gene carried by plasmids from
Escherichia coli
and
Salmonella enterica
. Results revealed genetic heterogeneity in the region downstream from
bla
CMY-2
and identified a putative transposable element bearing
bla
CMY-2
.
