Penicillin-binding proteins in Proteus species [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1979 Penicillin-binding proteins in three species of Proteus, Proteus mirabilis, P. morganii, and P. rettgeri, were investigated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide slab gel electrophoresis. Penicillin-binding proteins in these Proteus species were compared with those in Escherichia coli K-12.

Penicillin-Binding Proteins and β-Lactam Resistance [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Reviews, 2008 A number of ways and means have evolved to provide resistance to eubacteria challenged by beta-lactams. This review is focused on pathogens that resist by expressing low-affinity targets for these antibiotics, the penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs). Even within this narrow focus, a great variety of strategies have been uncovered such as the acquisition

Increased bile resistance in Salmonella enterica mutants lacking Prc periplasmic protease [PDF]
, 2013 Prc is a periplasmic protease involved in processing of penicillin-binding protein 3 (PBP3). Lack of Prc suppressesbile sensitivity in Dam-, Wec-, PhoP-, DamX-, and SeqA- mutants of Salmonella enterica, and increases bile resistance in thewild type ...
