Alterations in PBP 1A Essential for High-Level Penicillin Resistance in Streptococcus pneumoniae

High-level penicillin resistance in pneumococci is due to alterations in penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) 2X, 2B, and 1A. We have sequenced the penicillin-binding domain of PBP 1A from penicillin-resistant South African pneumococcal isolates and have identified amino acid substitutions which are c...
