Recombinant B. subtilis pbpD expression in E.coli requires the insertion of the target DNA fragment into an E.coli expression vector, routinely a plasmid vector, and the transferral of this vector into E.coli cells. The cells are then cultured and induced to express this pbpD protein. The cells are harvested by centrifugation, samples prepared and proteins detected by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and subsequent staining of the gel with Coomassie Brilliant Blue or silver stain or by immunoblotting. The pbpD protein expression in E.coli is highly scalable and can be adjusted from the bacterial colony to conical flasks for liquid cultures, to fermentation reaction chambers.
Penicillin-binding protein 4 (pbpD, PBP4) can promote antibiotic resistance independently of PBP2a. Altered expression of PBP4 is at least partially responsible for the VISA phenotype. PBP4 activity and regulation appear to be important for the response of S. aureus to vancomycin. PBP4 is associated with low levels of resistance to β-lactam antibiotics, but the mechanism for this is unclear. PBP4 plays a role in cell wall biosynthesis along with multiple PBPs. Overexpression of PBP4 is associated with low levels of methicillin resistance.There are currently no reviews for this product.
