Rapid assay of A2058T-mutated 23S rRNA allelic profiles associated with high-level macrolide resistance in Free

Abstract

We report on a restriction fragment-length polymorphism (CH4III) assay for profile analysis of 23S rRNA gene A2058T-mutated alleles associated with high-level macrolide resistance in . Our assay results were supported by DNA sequencing analysis, allowed for simultaneous testing of many strains, and produced results from pure-cultured colonies within 4 h.
