The rpsL gene and streptomycin resistance in Streptococcus gordonii and Streptococcus pyogenes

Creator:

Vidyasanker, Radhika

Abstract:

Streptomycin resistance in both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria is usually caused by a single mutation in the rpsL gene. The rpsL gene encodes the S12 protein of the ribosomal complex. The rpsL genes of various bacteria have consensus regions in their sequences. Primers were designed from these consensus pockets and...
