Mechanizms of Methicillin Resistance in Staphylococci and Methods Used in The Diagnosis of Methicillin Resistance
The most common mechanizm of methicillin resistance in staphylococci is the synthesis of a new penicillin binding protein (PBP2a). The genetic material responsible for PBP 2a syhthesis is carried in mec A gene. Only methicillin resistant staphylococci have this gene. It can be trasported to sensitiv...
