The AbcA transporter of Staphylococcus aureus affects cell autolysis.

Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy - 1 Feb 2001

Schrader-Fischer G, Berger-Bächi B

Abstract excerpt

Increased production of penicillin-binding protein PBP 4 is known to increase peptidoglycan cross-linking and contributes to methicillin resistance in Staphylococcus aureus. The pbp4 gene shares a 400-nucleotide intercistronic region with the divergently transcribed abcA gene, encoding an ATP-binding cassette transporter of unknown function. Our study revealed that methicillin stimulated abcA transcription but...
