Abstract excerpt
A 2.5 kb plasmid, pA22, isolated from a naturally occurring S. aureus strain confers constitutive MLS-resistance. By restriction enzyme analysis, pA22 is indistinguishable from the S. aureus inducible MLS-resistance conferring plasmid, pT48, apart froma small deletion. DNA sequencing showed that the deletion, is in the leader/attenuator region of the ermC (MLS-resistance) gene and removes some of the...
