Abstract excerpt
Two single-base mutations in 16S rRNA conferring high-level resistance to spectinomycin were isolated on a plasmid-borne copy of the rrnD operon from Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium. Neither of the mutations (C1066U and C1192U) had appreciable effects on cell growth, but each had differential effects on resistance to spectinomycin and fusidic acid. Both mutations also conferred resistance to spectinomycin...
