Cell wall thickness and the molecular mechanism of heterogeneous vancomycin‐intermediate Staphylococcus aureus
5 Feb 2021
Abstract excerpt
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) with reduced sensitivity to vancomycin (VAN) has caused many clinical cases of VAN treatment failure, but the molecular mechanism underlying the reduced sensitivity to VAN is still unclear. We isolated a heterogeneous VAN-intermediate Staphylococcus aureus (hVISA), which was also a MRSA strain with reduced sensitivity to VAN. To investigate the molecular...
