TABLE 4.

Changes in the QRDR of GyrA and ParC in BMS-284756-selected resistance mutantsa

Strain or mutant group Mutations in:
GyrAb ParCc
R6 parent S81, E85 S79, D83
1st level resistant S81F, E85 S81Y, E85 S79, D83
2nd level resistant S81Y, E85 S79F, D85
3rd level resistant S81Y, E85K S81Y, E85G S79F, D85
4th level resistant S81Y, E85K S79F, D85G
a

No changes were observed in GyrB or ParE in the present set of mutants. 

b

Amino acid position and mutations of key amino acids in the QRDR of the GyrA protein, as derived from DNA sequences at each resistance level. Amino acid changes were determined for each of three independent isolates, and where variants among the mutants were present, both changes at that level are shown. 

c

Amino acid positions and mutations of the QRDR of the ParC protein, as derived from DNA sequence at each resistance level. Amino acid changes were determined for each of three independent isolates.
