mecA Is Not Involved in the σ(B)-Dependent Switch of the Expression Phenotype of Methicillin Resistance in Staphylococcus epidermidis

A lack of σ(B) activity reduces methicillin resistance in heterogeneous Staphylococcus epidermidis 1057, whereas inactivation of the anti-sigma factor RsbW switched the phenotype to homogeneous expression of resistance. Oxacillin induction of mecA transcription is reduced in a σ(B)-negative strain....
