903. Resensitization to β-Lactams in Enterococci Depends on Penicillin-Binding Protein (PBP) Mislocalization and Is Mediated by a Single Protein That Modulates Cell Membrane (CM) Adaptation to Daptomycin (DAP)
BACKGROUND: DAP disrupts bacterial CM by binding to septal anionic phospholipids (APLs). LiaX, an effector of the LiaFSR stress system, modulates DAP-R by diverting APLs away from the septum. Enterococci are intrinsically resistant to β-lactams due to the presence of PBPs (e.g., PBP5) with low affin...
