The regulatory regions of 52 erm(A) [formerly erm(TR)] clinical Streptococcus pyogenes isolates were studied. Differences in the upstream regulatory region of erm(A) correlated with macrolide/lincosamide resistance patterns. Nine macrolide/lincosamide/streptogramin B-resistant isolates had changes in the leader sequence of erm(A) including base changes, insertions, or deletions. Isolates were also emm typed.
对52株临床化脓性链球菌erm(A) [原erm(TR)]分离株的调控区域进行了研究。erm(A)上游调控区域的差异与大环内酯类/林可酰胺类耐药模式相关。9株对大环内酯类/林可酰胺类/链阳菌素B耐药的分离株在erm(A)的前导序列中有变化,包括碱基变化、插入或缺失。分离株也进行了emm分型。
