Penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) catalyze the final stages for peptidoglycan cell-wall bio-synthesis. Mutations in the PBP2a subunit can attenuate β-lactam antibiotic activity, resulting in unimpeded cell-wall formation and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). A double mutation in PBP2a (i.e., N146K and E150K) is resistant to β-lac...
