Abstract Macrolide-lincosamide generalized and constitutively expressed resistance was determined for Clostridium perfringens strain 581 which was isolated from a human gall bladder. Resistance to streptogramin antibiotics was not inducible. Six plasmid molecules ranging in size from 1.0 to 32 MDa were isolated but none could be correlated with the resistance phenotype in curing attempts. In mating experiments, the ML-resistance of C. perfringens 581 was not transferable by conjugation or by a conjugation-like process. Hybridization experiments with the erythromycin resistance (Emr) gene carrying fragments of pGB 301 from group B streptococci, which are homologous to several MLS resistance genes of streptococci and Staphylococcus aureus [1], revealed that no homology exists between the genes for the resistance determinants.
