Ultra structural characteristics of methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus cell wall after affecting with lytic bacteriophages using atomic force microscopy
Objective(s): During the last years with increasing resistant bacteria to the most antibiotics bacteriophages are suggested as appropriate treatment option. To investigate lytic activity of bacteriophages there are indirect microbial procedures and direct methods. The present study to complement microbial procedures and investigate ultra-structural characteristics of infection bacterium-phage u...
متن کاملCell-wall proteins of Staphylococcus aureus : a kinetic study of release by lysostaphin.
The kinetics of cell-wall hydrolysis of Staphylococcus aureus (strain Cowan I) by lysostaphin was studied by turbidity, quantitative determination of hexosamines, phosphorus, total proteins, protein A and by electron microscopy. In our experimental conditions, the lytic activity of lysostaphin was very fast and no characteristic cell-wall structures could be seen after five minutes. The release...
متن کاملMolecular characterization of a chromosomal locus in Staphylococcus aureus that contributes to oxidative defence and is highly induced by the cell-wall-active antibiotic oxacillin.
Previous studies employing two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and N-terminal protein sequencing have shown elevated synthesis of the enzyme methionine sulfoxide reductase (MsrA) in Staphylococcus aureus in response to cell-wall-active antibiotics. In the present study, the S. aureus msrA gene was cloned, overexpressed, purified as His-tagged MsrA and shown to have methionine sulfoxide reductas...
متن کاملIncorporation of Hydroxylysine into the Cell Wall and a Cell-wall Precursor in Staphylococcus Aureus.
Smith, W. Grady (University of Minnesota, St. Paul), Daniel P. Gilboe, and L. M. Henderson. Incorporation of hydroxylysine into the cell wall and a cell-wall precursor in Staphylococcus aureus. J. Bacteriol. 89:136-140. 1965.-Recent work has shown that hydroxylysine can substitute for lysine in cell-wall synthesis of Streptococcus faecalis, apparently becoming incorporated into cell-wall mucope...
متن کاملAntibiotic-induced autoactivation of IS256 in Staphylococcus aureus.
The 3' end of rsbU, encoding the positive regulator of the stress factor sigma B, was identified as a hot spot for spontaneous IS256 insertion in Staphylococcus aureus SA137/93G. Interestingly, subinhibitory concentrations of chloramphenicol in combination with heat stress, as well as linezolid and spectinomycin at physiological temperatures, selected for such rsbU::IS256 insertion mutants. In ...
