“…All isolates which had any mutation of position 2269, 2270, or 2271 (Escherichia coli numbering, positions 2057, 2058, and 2059, respectively) in rrl were resistant to clarithromycin ( We did not observe any isolates with an rrl mutation which also harbored a T28C mutation in erm (41). Where this occurred in isolates reported in the literature, they were always resistant (15,16). Of 37 isolates with a T28C mutation in erm (41) and no other relevant mutations, 84% (31/37) were susceptible to clarithromycin, 11% (4/31) had intermediate susceptibility, and 5% (2/31) were resistant.…”
