Reporter metabolite analysis of transcriptional profiles of a Staphylococcus aureus strain with normal phenotype and its isogenic hemB mutant displaying the small-colony-variant phenotype.
In this study, full-genome DNA microarrays based on the sequence of Staphylococcus aureus N315 were used to compare the transcriptome of a clinical S. aureus strain with a normal phenotype to that of its isogenic mutant with a stable small-colony-variant (SCV) phenotype (hemB::ermB). In addition to standard statistical analyses, systems biology advances were applied to identify reporter metabol...
متن کاملPhenotype microarray profiling of Staphylococcus aureus menD and hemB mutants with the small-colony-variant phenotype.
Standard biochemical tests have revealed that hemin and menadione auxotrophic Staphylococcus aureus small-colony variants (SCVs) exhibit multiple phenotypic changes. To provide a more complete analysis of the SCV phenotype, two genetically defined mutants with a stable SCV phenotype were comprehensively tested. These mutants, generated via mutations in menD or hemB that yielded menadione and he...
متن کاملDaptomycin pharmacodynamics against Staphylococcus aureus hemB mutants displaying the small colony variant phenotype.
OBJECTIVES Staphylococcus aureus small colony variants (SCVs) are slow-growing morphological variants associated with persistent infections. While vancomycin activity has been shown to be attenuated against SCVs of S. aureus, few data exist regarding daptomycin. The objective was to evaluate the pharmacodynamics of daptomycin against defined S. aureus mutants displaying the SCV phenotype. MET...
متن کاملAttenuated vancomycin bactericidal activity against Staphylococcus aureus hemB mutants expressing the small-colony-variant phenotype.
The in vitro bactericidal activities of vancomycin against Staphylococcus aureus hemB mutants displaying the small-colony-variant phenotype and their parental strains were evaluated. Vancomycin killing activities against hemB mutants were markedly attenuated, demonstrating approximately 50% less effect, a result which was well described by a Hill-type pharmacodynamic model.
متن کاملVancomycin and daptomycin pharmacodynamics differ against a site-directed Staphylococcus epidermidis mutant displaying the small-colony-variant phenotype.
Catheter-related bloodstream infections due to slow-growing Staphylococcus epidermidis small-colony variants (SCVs) are extremely difficult to treat. Daptomycin and vancomycin pharmacodynamics were evaluated against a site-directed hemB mutant of S. epidermidis displaying the SCV phenotype and compared to that of the parental strain. The maximal killing effect decreased by 7.7-fold for vancomyc...
