Characterization of a bacteriocin from Staphylococcus aureus strain 462.
Staphylococcus aureus 462 is one of three bacteriocin-producing strains selected for study from 200 isolates of staphylococci of animal origin. These bacteriocins are specific in their activity, inhibiting the growth of certain strains of S. aureus and other gram-positive species, but not gram-negative organisms. Staphylococcin 462 was not found in significant concentrations in the supernatant ...
متن کاملIsolation, characterization and therapeutic potential assessment of bacteriophages virulent to Staphylococcus aureus associated with goat mastitis
In the present study, the therapeutic potential of bacteriophages virulent to Staphylococcus aureus associated with goat mastitis were isolated, identified and assessed. Staphylococcus aureus (host or indicator bacterium) was isolated from a goat suffering from clinical mastitis. Based on cultural, morphological, biochemical tests and amplification of S. aureus specific thermonuclease gene inPC...
متن کاملCharacterization of a Mouse-Adapted Staphylococcus aureus Strain
More effective antibiotics and a protective vaccine are desperately needed to combat the 'superbug' Staphylococcus aureus. While in vivo pathogenicity studies routinely involve infection of mice with human S. aureus isolates, recent genetic studies have demonstrated that S. aureus lineages are largely host-specific. The use of such animal-adapted S. aureus strains may therefore be a promising a...
متن کاملCharacterization of a catalase-negative methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strain.
We describe an unusual clinical strain of catalase-negative methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus sensu stricto. Sequence analysis of its catalase gene showed 99.60% identities to the catalase genes of the reference strains. A 5-base deletion, however, led to a shift of the nucleotide reading frame and a loss of the enzymatic activity.
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of lysozyme-sensitive mutants of Staphylococcus aureus.
Four lysozyme-sensitive mutants were isolated after nitrosoguanidine mutagenesis of a lysozyme-insensitive strain of Staphylococcus aureus. One mutant was sufficiently effective for the isolation of macromolecules, such as plasmid deoxyribonucleic acids, from a cell after lysozyme-induced cell lysis.
