Prediction of Decreased Susceptibility to Penicillin of Neisseria meningitidis Strains by Real-Time PCR

Sequence analysis of the penA gene, encoding penicillin-binding protein 2 (PBP2), in 30 penicillin-intermediate (PenI) Neisseria meningitidis strains showed altered gene sequences due to the translocation of exogenous DNA blocks derived from commensal neisseriae, which are known to have PBP2 protein...
