Abstract

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is caused by the production of low-affinity penicillin-binding protein 2a and β-lactamases, which are encoded by mecA and blaZ, respectively. Expressions of the two key genes are mutually regulated by MecI and BlaI. The aim of this study was to design specific anti-mecR1 and anti-blaR1 deoxyribozymes and identify the restoration of susceptibility in MRSA isolates with mecI or blaI or no deletions by interfering with the mutual regulation of mecA and blaZ.
