Point Mutations in the folP Gene Partly Explain Sulfonamide Resistance of Streptococcus mutans by W. Buwembo, S. Aery, C. M. Rwenyonyi, G. Swedberg, F. Kironde

“…Nevertheless, sulfonamide resistance (MIC = 50 μM) of folP-knockout bacteria transformed with plasmid-encoded folP was much less than the resistance (MIC = 4 mM) expressed by chromosomally-encoded folP. Therefore, folP point mutations only partially explain bacterial resistance to sulfonamide.…”
