Genetic diversity among Canadian isolates of penicillin-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae and characterization of penicillin-binding protein 1A, 2B and 2X mutations
Increases in the prevalence of penicillin-nonsusceptible ' Streptococcus pneumoniae' can be attributed to the acquisition of altered penicillin-binding protein (PBP) genes and to the geographic spread of genetically related isolates with elevated B-lactam minimum inhibitory concentrations...
