    THE BIOGENESIS OF MITOCHONDRIA, V. CYTOPLASMIC INHERITANCE OF ERYTHROMYCIN RESISTANCE IN SACCHAROMYCES CEREVISIAE* BY ANTHONY W. LINNANE, G. W. SAUNDERS, ELLIOT B. GINGOLD, AND H. B. LUKINS BIOCHEMISTRY DEPARTMENT, MONASH UNIVERSITY, CLAYTON, VICTORIA, AUSTRALIA Communicated by David E. Green, December 26, 1967 The recognition and study of respiratory-deficient mutants of yeast has been of fundamental importance in contributing to our knowledge of the genetic control of the formation of mitochondria. From these studies it has been recognized that cytoplasmic genetic determinants as well as chromosomal genes are involved in the biogenesis of yeast mitochondria.1' 2 Following the recog- nition of the occurrence of mitochondrial DNA,3 4 attention has recently been focused on the relationship between mitochondrial DNA and the cytoplasmic determinant.' However, the information on this latter subject is limited and is derived from the study of a single class of mutant of this determinant, the re- spiratory-deficient cytoplasmic petite. This irreversible mutation is pheno- typically characterized by the inability of the cell to form a number of compo- nents of the respiratory system, including cytochromes a, a3, b, and c1.6 A clearer understanding of the role of cytoplasmic determinants in mitochondrial bio- genesis, could result from the characterization of new types of cytoplasmic mutations which do not result in such extensive biochemical changes. This would thus simplify the biochemical analyses as well as providing additional cytoplasmic markers to assist further genetic studies. We have reported that the antibiotics chloramphenicol, lincomycin, and the macrolides erythromycin, carbomycin, spiramycin, and oleandomycin selec- tively inhibit in vitro amino acid incorporation by yeast mitochondria, while not affecting the yeast cytoplasmic ribosomal system.7' 8 Further, these antibiotics do not affect the growth of S.

Mankin* Center for Pharmaceutical Biotechnology – M/C 870, University of Illinois, 900 S. Ashland Ave., Chicago, IL 60607, USA Abstract: Macrolides are among the most clinically important antibiotics. However, many aspects of macrolide action and resistance remain obscure. In this review we summarize the current knowledge, as well as unsolved questions, regarding the principles of macrolide binding to the large ribosomal subunit and the mechanism of drug action. Two mechanisms of macrolide resistance, inducible expression of Erm methyltransferase and peptide-mediated resistance, appear to depend on specific interactions between the ribosome-bound macrolide molecule and the nascent peptide. The similarity between these mechanisms and their relation to the general mode of macrolide action is discussed and the discrepancies between currently available data are highlighted. Key words: macrolides, erythromycin, ketolides, azithromycin, clarithromycin., tylosin, carbomycin, spiramycin, ribosome, resistance. INTRODUCTION transferase center and cause cell growth arrest due to inhibition of protein synthesis [1,2].
