Molecular basis of intrinsic macrolide resistance in clinical isolates of Mycobacterium fortuitum

8 Dec 2004

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: Some clinical isolates of Mycobacterium fortuitum are naturally resistant to macrolides, e.g. clarithromycin. Thus, the aim of this study was to identify the gene(s) conferring this resistance. METHODS: M. fortuitum ATCC 6841T DNA libraries were screened for plasmids that complemented the macrolide-susceptible phenotype of Mycobacterium smegmatis variant ermKO4 [erm(38)-negative]. Macrolide-resistant...
