Title: [Cephalosporins: bacterial resistance measured by penicillin-binding proteins]. Author: Garrido J, López F. Journal: Rev Med Chil; 1989 Sep; 117(9):1037-43. PubMed ID: 2519470. Abstract: Antibacterial potency of cephalosporins depends on inhibition (acylation) of one or more penicillin-binding proteins (PBP). Recently, reduced affinity of PBP for cephalosporins and other B-lactam agents has been found in some cases. Mechanism for these changes in affinity are analyzed in this review.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
