We have isolated in vitro fluoroquinolone-resistant mutants of the Lyme disease agent,Borrelia burgdorferi. Mutations inparC, which encodes a subunit of topoisomerase IV, were associated with loss of susceptibility to sparfloxacin, moxifloxacin, and Bay-Y3118, but not ciprofloxacin. This is the first description of fluoroquinolone resistance in the spirochete phylum.
