Inducible erythromycin resistance in staphlyococci is encoded by a member of the ATP‐binding transport super‐gene family
A Staphylococcus epidermidis plasmid conferring inducible resistance to 14‐membered ring macrolides and type B streptogramins has been analysed and the DNA sequence of the gene responsible for… Expand

Msr(A) and related macrolide/streptogramin resistance determinants: incomplete transporters?
The gene msr(A) confers inducible resistance to 14-membered-ring macrolides and type B streptogramins (MS(B) resistance) in staphylococci. The encoded hydrophilic protein (Msr(A)) is 488 amino acids… Expand

16S rRNA Mutation Associated with Tetracycline Resistance in a Gram-Positive Bacterium
ABSTRACT A genetic basis for tetracycline resistance in cutaneous propionibacteria was suggested by comparing the nucleotide sequences of the 16S rRNA genes from 16 susceptible and 21 resistant… Expand

Staphylococcal resistance revisited: community-acquired methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus--an emerging problem for the management of skin and soft tissue infections.
Purpose of reviewIn the community non-localized or deep staphylococcal skin and soft tissue infections are typically managed with β-lactamase stable penicillins. The aims of this review are (1) to… Expand

Detection of transposon Tn5432-mediated macrolide-lincosamide-streptogramin B (MLSB) resistance in cutaneous propionibacteria from six European cities.
Forty-five cutaneous propionibacterial isolates from six European cities were found to be highly resistant to all macrolide-lincosamide-streptogramin B antibiotics, including the ketolide… Expand

Is Antibiotic Resistance in Cutaneous Propionibacteria Clinically Relevant?
AbstractIt is well recognized that some patients with acne do not respond adequately to antibiotic therapy. It is important to distinguish antibiotic recalcitrant acne which we would suggest… Expand

Clinical resistance to erythromycin and clindamycin in cutaneous propionibacteria isolated from acne patients is associated with mutations in 23S rRNA.
The genetic basis of erythromycin resistance in cutaneous propionibacteria was determined by comparing the nucleotide sequences of the peptidyl transferase region in the 23S rRNAs from 9 susceptible… Expand

A variety of gram-positive bacteria carry mobile mef genes.
The mefE gene codes for a membrane bound efflux protein, which confers resistance to macrolides, and has been identified in Streptococcus pneumoniae. A variety of gram-positive organisms were… Expand
