Abstract excerpt
The set of the laboratory strain M. hominis H-34 mutants resistant to fluoroquinolones (ciprofloxacin-Cfl, lomefloxacin-Lfl, ofloxacin-Ofl) was obtained by selection in broth medium. The mutation was found in the quinolone resistance-determining region (QRDR) of A subunit of topoisomerase IV gene (parC) and new mutations were found in QRDR of genes encoding the A subunit of DNA gyrase (gyrA) in M. hominis mutants...
