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 کاملInhibition of fibrinogen reaction by polysaccharide of encapsulated Staphylococcus aureus.
Encapsulated and nonencapsulated strains of Staphylococcus aureus which lack coagulase or clumping factor (bound coagulase), or both, were examined for the antigen associated with the fibrinogen-cell clumping reaction. Extracts of the cells were tested for the ability to react with fibrinogen or to inhibit fibrinogen precipitation. Antisera prepared against encapsulated (coagulase-positive, clu...
متن کاملImmunogenicity analysis of Staphylococcus aureus clumping factor A genetic variants.
The staphylococcal adhesin clumping factor A (ClfA) has a variant amino acid sequence, generating the potential for alterations in epitope structure and immunogenicity of this vaccine candidate. We demonstrated for two recombinant ClfA(40-531) (a slightly truncated version of the fibrinogen-binding domain of ClfA containing amino acids 40 to 531) genetic variants that strain-specific epitopes a...
متن کاملConstruction of a New Fusion Protein Vector Associated to Fibronectin Binding Protein A and Clumping Factor A Derived from Staphylococcus aureus NCTC8325
Objective(s) Staphylococcus aureus is a leading cause of many nosocomial and community acquired infections. According to many reports, antibiotic therapy can not guarantee the eradication of S. aureus infections. Thus designing an adhesin based vaccine could restrain the S. aureus infections. This study designed for construction of a new fusion protein vaccine against S. aureus infections base...
متن کاملReliability of latex agglutination tests for identification of Staphylococcus aureus resistant to oxacillin.
Commercial latex agglutination tests (LATs) for the simultaneous detection of clumping factor and protein A are gaining increased acceptance as a means of identifying Staphylococcus aureus. We evaluated two LATs (Accu-Staph; Carr-Scarborough, Decatur, Ga.; Staphaurex; Wellcome, Dartford, England) with particular emphasis on their ability to correctly identify oxacillin-resistant S. aureus. We t...
