Altered lipid composition in Streptococcus pneumoniae cpoA mutants.

BMC microbiology - 20 Jan 2014

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Penicillin-resistance in Streptococcus pneumoniae is mainly due to alterations in genes encoding the target enzymes for beta-lactams, the penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs). However, non-PBP genes are altered in beta-lactam-resistant laboratory mutants and confer decreased susceptibility to beta-lactam antibiotics. Two piperacillin resistant laboratory mutants of Streptococcus pneumoniae R6 contain...
