LiaX is a surrogate marker for cell-envelope stress and daptomycin non-susceptibility in <i>Enterococcus faecium</i>
2023-08-18
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Daptomycin (DAP) is often used as a first line therapy to treat vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VR Efm ) infections but emergence of DAP non-susceptibility threatens the effectiveness of this antibiotic. Moreover, current methods to determine DAP MICs have poor reproducibility and accuracy. In enterococci, DAP resistance is mediated by the LiaFSR cell membrane stress response system...
