An alternative nisin A resistance mechanism affects virulence in <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i>
2019-07-26
Abstract excerpt
Nisin A is a bacteriocin produced by Lactococcus lactis and is widely used as a food preservative. Staphylococcus aureus has the BraRS-VraDE system providing resistance against low concentrations of nisin A. The BraRS is one of a two-component system that senses nisin A by BraS and finally induces the expression of ABC transporter VraDE by phosphorylated BraR. Previously, we isolated a highly nisin A resistant s...
