Rapid Detection of the Methicillin-resistance Gene,mecA, in Coagulase-negative Staphylococci

Scandinavian Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2001
Phenotypical methods are routinely used to detect methicillin resistance in Staphylococci. These methods are time-consuming and there are difficulties in detecting all resistant strains carrying the mecA gene. We detected methicillin-resistant Staphylococci in biological samples by PCR amplification of mecA, without the time-consuming step of ...

[The structure and function of the mecA gene in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus].

Nihon rinsho. Japanese journal of clinical medicine, 1992
Penicillin binding protein (PBP) 2' is the most important mechanism of the resistance to beta-lactams in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). And the mecA gene is the coding gene of PBP2', and located in the SmaI fragment G of the chromosome map by Pattle P.A.,. A part of the structure of mecA is similar to that of the penicillinase gene.

Identification of the methicillin-resistant gene mecA in Staphylococcus aureus

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a significant public health concern due to its resistance to β-lactam antibiotics and its ability to cause a wide range of infections. This study aimed to detect the presence of the mecA gene responsible for methicillin resistance in Staphylococcus aureus isolates obtained from patients with skin ...
