Production and release of the pneumococcal virulence factors pneumolysin and lipoteichoic and teichoic acid in 75 clinical isolates were investigated. No difference was found between strains causing systemic infection or localized respiratory infection and isolates from asymptomatic carriers. This suggests that the presence of pneumolysin and lipoteichoic and teichoic acid is a necessary but no...
We investigated the biochemical and immunological characteristics of teichoic acid preparations (TAP) obtained from four unencapsulated strains of Staphylococcus aureus which nonetheless, according to the serum-soft agar technique, produced capsular type antigen and were representative of the four types A, B, C, and D. In the agar diffusion test, TAP of each strain produced a single precipitin ...
The molecular mechanisms underlying cell growth, cell division and pathogenesis in Streptococcus pneumoniae are still not fully understood. Single-cell methodologies are potentially of great value to investigate S. pneumoniae cell biology. Here, we report the construction of novel plasmids for single and double cross-over integration of functional fusions to the gene encoding a fast folding var...
The widespread emergence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has dramatically eroded the efficacy of current β-lactam antibiotics and created an urgent need for new treatment options. We report an S. aureus phenotypic screening strategy involving chemical suppression of the growth inhibitory consequences of depleting late-stage wall teichoic acid biosynthesis. This enabled us ...
Staphylococcus aureus is an important cause of infectious disease of the eye and hypersensitivity lesions of the cornea including phlyctenules and catarrhal infiltrates. Because little is known about ocular immunity to S. aureus, we measured antibody levels to ribitol teichoic acid, the major antigenic determinant of S. aureus, in rabbit serum and tears using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assa...
The wheat straw as abundant lignocellulosic resource was successfully undergone in a benzylation reaction and plasticized with different contents (2.5, 3, 5 and 7 wt. %) of glycerol and stearic acid.The effect of type and concentration of plasticizers on the mechanical, thermomechanical, morphological and water absorption properties of Benzylated Wheat Straw (BWS) was investigated ...
In recent decades, the emergence of multi-drug resistant pathogenic organisms has proven to be a significant threat to human health. Today, resistant organisms have been identified for every class of antibiotics introduced into clinical practice. Combining this with the knowledge that the introduction of new antimicrobial classes has been almost non-existent since the early 1960's, stresses the...
The in vitro kinetics of muramic acid-alanine bond hydrolysis and pneumococcal purpura-producing principle generation by incubation of Streptococcus pneumoniae cell wall preparations with the bacterial autolysin N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanine amidase were similar. The generated purpura-producing principle preparation had a weight-average molecular weight of ca. 2.6 X 10(7) and possessed the glycan a...
Because the reported frequency of teichoic acid precipitins in controls and various patient groups has varied considerably among laboratories, we studied the effect of using various concentrations of staphylococcal extracts in agar-gel diffusion tests for teichoic acid antibodies. Of 25 normal sera, only 1 was positive against an undiluted extract, but 4 were positive against a 16-fold-diluted ...
