Intrinsic novobiocin resistance in Staphylococcus saprophyticus was associated with expression of a novobiocin-resistant form of the drug target protein (GyrB). Site-directed mutagenesis established that resistance depends upon the presence of two specific amino acid residues in GyrB: a glycine at position 85 and a lysine at position 140.
腐生葡萄球菌对新生霉素的内在抗性与药物靶蛋白(GyrB)的耐新生霉素形式的表达有关。定点诱变表明,抗性取决于GyrB中两个特定氨基酸残基的存在:第85位的甘氨酸和第140位的赖氨酸。
