Characterization of genetic changes associated with daptomycin nonsusceptibility in Staphylococcus aureus.

Characterization of genetic changes associated with daptomycin nonsusceptibility in Staphylococcus aureus.

The extensive use of daptomycin (DAP) for treatment of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections in the last decade has led to the emergence of DAP non-susceptible (DNS) Staphylococcus aureus strains. A better understanding of the molecular changes underlying DAP-non-susceptibili...
