Abstract excerpt
Little is known about the mechanisms by which ileS mutations induce vancomycin tolerance in Staphylococcus aureus This study showed that transcriptome profiles were similar in vancomycin-tolerant mutants and the IleRS-inhibitor-treated parent. Notably, ileS and relA, which induce a stringent response, were upregulated. The same mechanism was responsible for cross-tolerance to vancomycin and ciprofloxacin. These...
