Prevalence of fosfomycin resistance and gene mutations in clinical isolates of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus

ConclusionsAn increased fosfomycin resistance rate of MRSA isolates was observed in our present study, mostly due to mutations in theglpT anduhpT genes. Clonal spread probably contributed to the increased fosfomycin resistance.
