Analysis of the length distribution of murein glycan strands inftsZandftsImutants ofE. coli [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1998 The chain length distribution of murein glycan strands was analyzed in wild-type cells and in cells in which preseptal and/or septal murein synthesis was prevented in ftsZ84 and ftsI36 mutants of E. coli. This revealed a significant change in glycan chain lengths in newly synthesized murein associated with inactivation of the ftsZ gene product but not ...

New Microbes and New Infections, 2020 The decreased affinity to β-lactams in Haemophilus influenzae is usually caused by specific alterations in penicillin-binding protein 3 due to varieties of substitutions in ftsI gene. This study aimed to characterize the polymorphism of ftsI gene in 19 H.

Mutant ftsI genes in the emergence of penicillin-binding proteinmediated β-lactam resistance in Haemophilus influenzae in Norway [PDF]
Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2010 The most important mechanism for beta-lactam resistance in beta-lactamase-negative ampicillin-resistant (BLNAR) isolates of Haemophilus influenzae is the alteration of penicillin-binding protein 3 (PBP3) as a result of ftsI gene mutations. The present study aimed to map PBP3 alterations and to determine the correlation to beta-lactam resistance in ...

Efficacy of Simulated Cefditoren versus Amoxicillin-Clavulanate Free Concentrations in Countering Intrastrain ftsI Gene Diffusion in Haemophilus influenzae [PDF]
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2011 ABSTRACT This study explores the effects of cefditoren (CDN) versus amoxicillin-clavulanic acid (AMC) on the evolution (within a single strain) of total and recombined populations derived from intrastrain ftsI gene diffusion in β-lactamase-positive (BL + ) and β-lactamase-negative ...
