Glutamine synthetase and heteroresistance in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.

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

Strandén A M, Roos M, Berger-Bächi B

Abstract excerpt

Inactivation of femC in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) results in lowered methicillin resistance and a reduction in the amidation of the iso-D-glutamate of the peptidoglycan stem peptide. The femC phenotype is due to insertional inactivation of the glutamine synthetase repressor gene glnR by Tn551, which has a polar effect on glutamine synthetase (glnA) transcription. The complete glutamine...
