Telithromycin resistance in Campylobacter mediated by 23S rRNA A2075G mutation and erm(B).

23S_A2075G and erm(B), which have been widely spread in different genotypes of C. coli isolated from animals and humans, could mediate high levels of resistance to telithromycin in C. coli. C. coli containing 23S_A2075G or erm(B) are clonally related and have the potential to spread zoonotic diseases.
