The nucleotide sequence of the ileS gene conferring high-level resistance to mupirocin in Staphylococcus aureus J2870 has been determined. The gene sequence is substantially different from that of the native ileS gene of S. aureus, indicating that high-level resistance to mupirocin results from the acquisition of a novel ileS gene.
已确定金黄色葡萄球菌J2870中赋予对莫匹罗星高水平抗性的ileS基因的核苷酸序列。该基因序列与金黄色葡萄球菌天然ileS基因的序列有很大不同,表明对莫匹罗星的高水平抗性是由于获得了一个新的ileS基因。
