Genetic characterization of penicillin-binding proteins of nonencapsulated Streptococcus pneumoniae in the postpneumococcal conjugate vaccine era in Japan

Genetic characterization of penicillin-binding proteins of nonencapsulated Streptococcus pneumoniae in the postpneumococcal conjugate vaccine era in Japan

Objectives: Nonencapsulated Streptococcus pneumoniae (NESp) is emerging after the introduction of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs). This study aimed to elucidate the genetic characteristics of penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs; PBP1a, 2b, and 2x) associated with penicillin nonsusceptibility in...
