penicillin-binding protein
Overview
Mutations in Genes Encoding Penicillin-Binding Proteins and Efflux Pumps Play a Role in β-Lactam Resistance in Helicobacter cinaedi.
Mutations in pbpA and ftsI genes were identified as key determinants of β-lactam resistance in Helicobacter cinaedi, with pbpA mutations being the primary factor. Additionally, efflux pump components cmeB and cmeD were found to contribute to resistance.
Significant increase in the secretion of extracellular vesicles and antibiotics resistance from methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus induced by ampicillin stress.
The study identifies β-lactamase (blaZ and SA1529) and penicillin-binding proteins (pbpA, pbp2, pbp3) in EVs from MRSA that contribute to β-lactam antibiotic resistance by degrading antibiotics and altering cell wall synthesis.
