Abstract

Mutants with various levels of resistance to streptothricin were isolated from Escherichia coli K12, strain A19 after mutagenesis with N‐methyl‐N'‐nitroso‐guanidine and ethylmethane‐sulfonate. Nourseothricin, a mixture of streptothricin F. and D was the selection agent. Spontaneous resistant mutants could not be found. The streptothricin‐resistant mutant E. coli A19 Stcr 2/2/1 shows cross‐resistance to some of the aminoglycoside antibiotics investigated, but no cross‐resistance to chloramphenicol and chlortetracyclin. These results indicate similar mechanisms of action of streptothricin and aminoglycoside antibiotics.
