  1. aA rifampin- and fusidic acid-resistant derivative of clinical strain E. faecium D344S in which the spontaneous loss of pbp5 and its surrounding region resulted in an ampicillin-susceptible phenotype.
  2. bAmino acid change (E to K/G) in residue 87 or (S to R/Y/I) in residue 83 of GyrA.
  3. cAmino acid change (E to K) in residue 86 or (S to R/I) in residue 82 of ParC.
  4. dConsensus sequence of the pbp5-R allele encoding the low affinity Pbp5-R.
  5. eTC6 was not included in this analysis as it is a transconjugant of C68 and D344SRF, so therefore is not a unique genome.
