Penicillin-binding proteins 2x and 2b as primary PBP targets in Streptococcus pneumoniae.

Microbial drug resistance (Larchmont, N.Y.) - 1 Jan 1996

Krauss J, van der Linden M, Grebe T, Hakenbeck R

Abstract excerpt

Different penicillin-binding proteins PBPs are affected in cefotaxime-resistant laboratory mutants compared to piperacillin-resistant mutants. PBP2x acts as the primary PBP target in cefotaxime-resistant mutants, whereas PBP2b is the primary target in piperacillin-resistant mutants. Depending on...
