Genetic Heterogeneity in pbp Genes among Clinically Isolated Group B Streptococci with Reduced Penicillin Susceptibility

23 Sept 2008

Abstract excerpt

The recent emergence of group B streptococcal isolates exhibiting increased penicillin MICs at the Funabashi Municipal Medical Center and other hospitals in Japan prompted a comparative analysis of the penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) from those strains with the PBPs from penicillin-susceptible strains comprising four neonatal invasive strains isolated from 1976 to 1988 and two recent isolates. The PBP...
