| CARD Short Name | vanE_cluster |
| Definition | Homologous to VanC, contains a D-Ala-D-Ser ligase. The chromosome-located vanE gene cluster is inducible and confers low resistance to vancomycin. vanE organisms remain susceptible to teicoplanin. Gene orientation: E(XY)TRS. |
| AMR Gene Family | glycopeptide resistance gene cluster |
| Drug Class | glycopeptide antibiotic |
| Resistance Mechanism | antibiotic target alteration |
| Classification | 8 ontology terms | Show + process or component of antibiotic biology or chemistry + mechanism of antibiotic resistance + determinant of antibiotic resistance + antibiotic molecule + antibiotic target alteration [Resistance Mechanism] + glycopeptide antibiotic [Drug Class] + restructuring of bacterial cell wall conferring antibiotic resistance + antibiotic resistance gene cluster, cassette, or operon |

Prevalence of glycopeptide resistance gene cluster VanE among the sequenced genomes, plasmids, and whole-genome shotgun assemblies available at NCBI or IslandViewer for 413 important pathogens (see methodological details and complete list of analyzed pathogens). Values reflect percentage of genomes, plasmids, genome islands, or whole-genome shotgun assemblies that have at least one hit to the AMR detection model. Default view includes percentages calculated based on Perfect plus Strict RGI hits. Select the checkbox to view percentages based on only Perfect matches to AMR reference sequences curated in CARD (note: this excludes resistance via mutation as references in protein variant models are often wild-type, sensitive sequences).
