  • Title: Comparison of vancomycin-inducible proteins from four strains of Enterococci.
    Author: al-Obeid S, Gutmann L, Shlaes DM, Williamson R, Collatz E.
    Journal: FEMS Microbiol Lett; 1990 Jun 15; 58(1):101-5. PubMed ID: 2118867.
    Abstract:
    Vancomycin-inducible proteins of 39.5 and 39 kDa from respectively, low-level and high-level resistant Enterococci were compared. Electrophoretic, immunoblot and peptide analysis revealed three types of protein, one in a low-level resistant strain of E. faecium, one in 2 high-level-resistant strains of E. faecium, and one in a high-level resistant strain of E. faecalis. The inducible proteins of E. faecium and E. faecalis, of 39.5 and 39 kDa respectively, which may function in a similar fashion (Al-Obeid et al. (1990) Antimicrob. Agents Chemother. 34, 252-256), are not related immunologically.
