耐甲氧西林(MR)金黄色葡萄球菌菌株的特点是对许多青霉素和头孢菌素具有耐药性[1]。甲氧西林耐药性(通常称为“内在耐药性”)的生化基础尚不清楚,但似乎与可检测到的抗生素酶失活无关,尽管此类菌株经常产生β-内酰胺酶[2-4]。13-内酰胺抗生素被认为通过抑制膜结合的“致命”靶标青霉素来杀死细菌。结合蛋白 (PBP)[5] 被认为可以催化肽聚糖生物合成的末端反应 [6]。最近,修饰的 PBP 被认为是 13-1actam 耐药性的机制。例如,大肠杆菌 K-12 的一些耐美西林突变体具有修饰的 PBP2,其对该抗生素的亲和力降低 [7],并且 PBP 的改变似乎与氯唑西林相关
Methicillin-resistant (MR) strains of Staphylococcus aureus are characterised by their resistance to many penicillins and cephalosporins [1]. The biochemical basis for methicillin resistance, often termed" intrinsic resistance", is not known but appears to be independant of detectable enzymic inactivation of the ant~ iotic, even though such strains often produce~-lactamase [2-4].13-Lactam antibiotics are believed to kill bacteria by inhibiting membrane bound" lethal" target Penicillin. Binding Proteins (PBPs)[5] which are thought to catalyse the terminal reactions of peptidoglycan biosynthesis [6]. Modified PBPs have recently been implicated as a mechanism of 13-1actam resistance. For example, some mecillinarn-resistant mutants of Escherichia coli K-12 have a modified PBP2 with decreased affinity for that antibiotic [7] and alterations in PBPs appeared to correlated with cloxacillin
