Abstract

To study the resistance mechanism of E. faecalis to LCB01-0371, several resistant mutants to LCB01-0371 or linezolid were isolated by step-wise selection. The frequency of spontaneous mutations resistant to LCB01-0371 was lower than that of linezolid in E. faecalis. The genetic variations in resistant mutants were analyzed by DNA sequencing of domain V of 23S rRNA in each mutant. The first-step mutant to LCB01-0371 had a G2576T point mutation in V domain of 23S rRNA. However, no resistant mutant to LCB01-0371 was isolated in second-step mutant selection.
