PBP4: A New Perspective on Staphylococcus aureus β-Lactam Resistance. [PDF]

, 2018
β-lactam antibiotics are excellent drugs for treatment of staphylococcal infections, due to their superior efficacy and safety compared to other drugs.

The penicillin binding proteins of the genus Haemophilus [PDF]

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 1988
We questioned whether the penicillin binding protein (PBP) profiles of representative strains from the 19 species varied within the genus Haemophilus and whether these profiles would be of taxonomic value. Seventeen of the 19 representative strains studied had distinct PBP profiles; only those of H. avium and H. paragallinarum were identical.

Penicillin-binding Proteins (PBP) and Lmo0441 (a PBP-like protein) play a role in Beta-lactam sensitivity of Listeria monocytogenes

Gut Pathogens, 2009
While seven penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) or PBP-like proteins have been identified either by radiolabelled penicillin binding studies or genomic analysis, only PBP3 has been considered of interest for Beta-lactams activity against Listeria ...

A CozE Homolog Contributes to Cell Size Homeostasis of Streptococcus pneumoniae

mBio, 2020
Control of peptidoglycan assembly is critical to maintain bacterial cell size and morphology. Penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) are crucial enzymes for the polymerization of the glycan strand and/or their cross-linking via peptide branches.

MacP bypass variants of Streptococcus pneumoniae PBP2a suggest a conserved mechanism for the activation of bifunctional cell wall synthases

mBio, 2023
The peptidoglycan (PG) layer protects bacteria from osmotic lysis and defines their shape. The class A penicillin-binding proteins (aPBPs) are PG synthases that possess both glycan polymerization and crosslinking activities needed for PG biogenesis.

Penicillin-binding proteins of protoplast and sporoplast membranes of Streptomyces griseus strains [PDF]

, 1988
Membrane-bound penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) of two Streptomyces griseus strains that sporulate well in liquid and solid medium have been investigated during the course of their life-cycle.

Penicillin-binding proteins in Haemophilus influenzae [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1981
The penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) of Haemophilus influenzae were studied by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and fluorography. Eight major PBPs, ranging in molecular weights from 90,000 to 27,000, were detected. The pattern of molecular weights was different from that determined fro Escherichia coli or Pseudomonas ...

Peroxisomal Proteostasis Involves a Lon Family Protein That Functions as Protease and Chaperone [PDF]

, 2012
Proteins are subject to continuous quality control for optimal proteostasis. The knowledge of peroxisome quality control systems is still in its infancy. Here we show that peroxisomes contain a member of the Lon family of proteases (Pln).

Impacts of Penicillin Binding Protein 2 Inactivation on β-Lactamase Expression and Muropeptide Profile in Stenotrophomonas maltophilia

mSystems, 2017
Penicillin binding proteins (PBPs) are involved in peptidoglycan synthesis, and their inactivation is linked to β-lactamase expression in ampR–β-lactamase module–harboring Gram-negative bacteria.

Reprogramming Hansenula polymorpha for penicillin production: expression of the Penicillium chrysogenum pcl gene [PDF]

, 2007
We aim to introduce the penicillin biosynthetic pathway into the methylotrophic yeast Hansenula polymorpha. To allow simultaneous expression of the multiple genes of the penicillin biosynthetic pathway, additional markers were required.
