Mutation at the position 2058 of the 23S rRNA as a cause of macrolide resistance in Streptococcus pyogenes

BACKGROUND: In streptococci, three macrolide resistance determinants (erm(B), erm(TR) and mef(A)) have been found. In addition, certain mutations at the ribosomal 23S RNA can cause resistance to macrolides. Mutation at the position 2058 of the 23S rRNA of the Streptococcus pyogenes as a cause of mac...
