Divergent LD-transpeptidase-independent effects of peptidoglycan carboxypeptidases on intrinsic β-lactam and vancomycin resistance
2022-04-05
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Vancomycin and β-lactams are clinically important antibiotics that inhibit the formation of peptidoglycan cross-links, but their binding targets are different. The binding target of vancomycin is D-alanine-D-alanine (D-Ala-D-Ala), whereas that of β-lactam is penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs). In this study, we revealed the divergent effects of peptidoglycan (PG) carboxypeptidases on vancomycin...
