Inactivation of vancomycin-induced unstable L-forms of Staphylococcus aureus by horse serum
Substitution at codon Ser315 of katG gene, a reliable marker for isoniazid (INH) resistance and proliferate in spite of the loss of cell wall is called an L- form. Unstable L- forms can convert to normal cells but stble L-forms can not.cell wall - deffective state may be induced spontaneously or through the action of an appropriate agent such as antibiotic interfering with the synthesis of cel...
متن کاملSynergism of polymyxin and sulfonamides in L-forms of Staphylococcus aureus and Proteus mirabilis.
Earlier workers suggested that synergism of polymyxin and sulfonamides occurred because sulfonamides produced changes in the cell wall which permitted the more ready access of polymyxin. We tested this hypothesis by using L-forms, which lack cell wall. The demonstration that synergism of polymyxin and sulfonamides occurs in L-forms of Proteus mirabilis and Staphylococcus aureus suggested that t...
متن کاملCharacterization of Staphylococcus aureus enterotoxin L.
Staphylococcus aureus causes a wide variety of diseases. Major virulence factors of this organism include enterotoxins (SEs) that cause both food poisoning and toxic shock syndrome. Recently, a novel SE, tentatively designated SEL, was identified in a pathogenicity island from a bovine mastitis isolate. The toxin had a molecular weight of 26,000 and an isoelectric point of 8.5. Recombinant SEL ...

Bacteriol. 88:630-632. 1964.-Antibiotics whose primary site of action is in the cell wall (penicillin and cephalothin) do not inhibit growth of L-phase organisms. In this study, kanamycin, neomycin, poly...
