Transduction of resistance to some macrolide antibiotics in Staphylococcus aureus.
Pattee, P. A. (Iowa State University, Ames) and J. N. Baldwin. Transduction of resistance to some macrolide antibiotics in Staphylococcus aureus. J. Bacteriol. 84:1049-1055. 1962.-By use of phage 80 of the International Typing Series, propagated on appropriate strains of Staphylococcus aureus, two related markers controlling resistance to certain macrolide antibiotics (erythromycin, oleandomyci...
متن کاملRational design of azepane-glycoside antibiotics targeting the bacterial ribosome.
RNA recognition by natural aminoglycoside antibiotics depends on the 2-deoxystreptamine (2-DOS) scaffold which participates in specific hydrogen bonds with the ribosomal decoding-site target. Three-dimensional structure information has been used for the design of azepane-monoglycosides, building blocks for novel antibiotics in which 2-DOS is replaced by a heterocyclic scaffold. Azepane-glycosid...
متن کاملDrug Resistance Mechanisms of Mycoplasma pneumoniae to Macrolide Antibiotics
Throat swabs from children with suspected Mycoplasma pneumoniae (M. pneumoniae) infection were cultured for the presence of M. pneumoniae and its species specificity using the 16S rRNA gene. Seventy-six M. pneumoniae strains isolated from 580 swabs showed that 70 were erythromycin resistant with minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) around 32-512 mg/L. Fifty M. pneumoniae strains (46 resistan...
متن کاملBoosting bacterial metabolism to combat antibiotic resistance.
The metabolic state of a bacterial cell influences its susceptibility to antibiotics. In this issue, Peng et al. (2015) show that resistant bacteria can be sensitized to antibiotic treatment through the addition of exogenous metabolites that stimulate central metabolic pathways and increase drug uptake.
متن کاملBacterial resistance to antibiotics in vivo. I. Incidence of resistance.
In studies of the interactions of antibacterial agents, it became important to try to elicit bacterial resistance to antibiotics in the experimental animal. Since this proved to be unexpectedly difficult, attention was directed to the process by which bacteria acquire resistance during exposure in vivo. The present paper is concerned with the incidence of streptomycin resistance in strains of s...
