Acquisition of methicillin resistance and progression of multiantibiotic resistance in methicillin-resistantStaphylococcus aureus

Yonsei Medical Journal, 1998
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) produces specific penicillin-binding protein, PBP2', which shows remarkably low affinities to most beta-lactam antibiotics except those such as penicillin G and ampicillin. The region surrounding mecA has been called additional DNA or mec and is thought to be of extraspecies origin.

Impact of target site distribution for Type I restriction enzymes on the evolution of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) populations. [PDF]

, 2013
A limited number of Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) clones are responsible for MRSA infections worldwide, and those of different lineages carry unique Type I restriction-modification (RM) variants.

Antimicrobial resistance among commensal isolates of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus in the Indonesian population inside and outside hospitals [PDF]

, 2008
The prevalence of antimicrobial resistance among the commensal microflora was examined in the Indonesian population inside and outside hospitals. A total of 3,995 individuals were screened in two major urban centers.

Clinical and epidemiological factors associated with methicillin resistance in community-onset invasive Staphylococcus aureus infections: prospective multicenter cross-sectional study in Korea. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Successful empirical therapy of Staphylococcus aureus infections requires the ability to predict methicillin resistance. Our aim was to identify predictors of methicillin resistance in community-onset (CO) invasive S. aureus infections. Sixteen hospitals

Survey for Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococci [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1972
The incidence of isolation of Staphylococcus aureus strains resistant to methicillin is increasing in England and other European countries, whereas there have been only isolated reports of resistance in the United States. We thought this contrast might be related to the use of special sensitive screening techniques (

Rapid PCR Detection of Staphylococcus aureus Clonal Complex 398 by Targeting the Restriction-Modification System Carrying sau1-hsdS1 [PDF]

, 2011
A PCR targeting sau1-hsdS1 was developed for rapid detection of Staphylococcus aureus clonal complex 398 (CC398). High sensitivity (100%) and specificity (100%) were shown by evaluating the test on a large strain collection (n = 1,307). We recommend this
