Comments:
ErmBC methylates the exocyclic amine of A2058 in Peptidyl Center (between helix 73 and 74) of 23S rRNA. It is responsible for the development of bacterial resistance to lincosamide/ Streptogramin-type of antibiotics. This enzyme arosed in E. coli by lateral gene transfer from a gram positive bacteria.
