The Molecular Mechanisms of Allosteric Mutations Impairing MepR Repressor Function in Multidrug-Resistant Strains of <named-content content-type="genus-species">Staphylococcus aureus</named-content>
ABSTRACT Overexpression of the Staphylococcus aureus multidrug efflux pump MepA confers resistance to a wide variety of antimicrobials. mepA expression is controlled by MarR family member MepR, which represses mepA and autorepresses its own production. Mutations in mepR are a primary cause of mepA o...
