GraR
GraR is known for its role in β-lactam resistance by upregulating cell wall biosynthesis genes, altering cell wall composition, and increasing expression of ABC-transporter (El-Halfawy et al., 2020),(Yang et al., 2012),(Meehl et al., 2007). The GraSR system is a two-component regulatory system that controls the expression of many genes involved in stress response, cell wall metabolism and virulence pathways. The GraSR system was found to control genes involved in stress response, cell wall metabolism and virulence pathways, in addition to playing an important role in CAMP resistance, thus greatly enhancing its importance as the main signal transduction pathway of Staphylococcus aureus (Falord et al., 2011).
