  • Title: Genetic basis of erythromycin resistance in oral bacteria.
    Author: Villedieu A, Diaz-Torres ML, Roberts AP, Hunt N, McNab R, Spratt DA, Wilson M, Mullany P.
    Journal: Antimicrob Agents Chemother; 2004 Jun; 48(6):2298-301. PubMed ID: 15155239.
    Abstract:
    We determined the prevalence of erythromycin-resistant bacteria in the oral cavity and identified mef and erm(B) as the most common resistance determinants. In addition, we demonstrate the genetic linkage, on various Tn1545-like conjugative transposons, between erythromycin and tetracycline resistance in a number of isolates.
