Penicillin-binding proteins in Clostridium perfringens [PDF]
The penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) of Clostridium perfringens were studied. Six PBPs ranging in molecular weight from approximately 42,000 to 100,000 were detected in the cytoplasmic membrane. The relative affinities of the PBPs for 16 beta-lactam antibiotics were determined.

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 ...

Image-based dynamic phenotyping reveals genetic determinants of filamentation-mediated beta-lactam tolerance [PDF]
Antibiotic tolerance characterized by slow killing of bacteria in response to a drug can lead to treatment failure and promote the emergence of resistance.

The penicillin binding proteins of the genus Haemophilus [PDF]
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.

Identification of the molecular mechanism of christinin compounds from Arabian bidara leaves (Ziziphus spina-christi L.) on microorganisms that cause female genital problems through computational approaches [PDF]
Arabian bidara leaves (Ziziphus spina-christi, L.) are known to have strong antimicrobial activity against microorganisms that cause infection in the female genital area, namely Staphylococcus aureus bacteria and Candida albicans fungi. They contain main

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

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

Penicillin-binding proteins in Haemophilus influenzae [PDF]
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 ...
