Characterization of mutations in the rpoB gene in naturally rifampin-resistant Rickettsia species.

Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy - 1 Oct 1999

Drancourt M, Raoult D

Abstract excerpt

Rickettsiae are gram-negative, obligately intracellular bacteria responsible for arthropod-borne spotted fevers and typhus. Experimental studies have delineated a cluster of naturally rifampin-resistant spotted fever group species. We sequenced the 4, 122- to 4,125-bp RNA polymerase beta-subunit-encoding gene (rpoB) from typhus and spotted fever group representatives and obtained partial sequences for all...
