This work characterizes the activity and inhibition of VraS, which is a key histidine kinase in a bacterial two-component system that is involved in
Staphylococcus aureus
antibiotic resistance. The results show the effect of temperature, divalent ions, and VraR on the activity and the kinetic parameters of ATP binding.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
