[2] and [3] show nucleotide CC alterations in several mutant plasmids which lead to increased CC resistance to the antibiotic trimethoprim in E.coli. [3] shows CC that their plasmids' increased resistance is due to either a CC mutation in the fol promoter (position 500; 'c' to 't'), which CC increases production of DHFR about 10-fold, or a mutation in the CC structural gene (position 618; 'c' to 't'), which changes a proline CC codon to a serine codon. [2] and [3] show the fol promoter from CC positions 498 to 508 and 522 to 528.
