Table 2.
  • aAll S. pneumoniae loci number (spr#) are according to the annotation of R6.

  • bThe genome of this mutant was not sequenced. Only the genes found mutated in 1974M2 were PCR amplified and sequenced in 1974M1.

  • cWhen the mutations are within coding regions, the change in amino acids is also indicated in italics.

  • dIn noncoding sequence. The number preceded by “-“ indicates the position upstream of the ATG.
