Susceptibility to antibiotics and beta-lactamase induction in murein hydrolase mutants of Escherichia coli.

Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy - 1 Apr 2005

Korsak Dorota, Liebscher Sylvia, Vollmer Waldemar

Abstract excerpt

The antibiotic susceptibilities and capabilities to induce beta-lactamases were studied in multiple Escherichia coli murein (peptidoglycan) hydrolase mutants. E. coli mutants lacking either three amidases, three amidases and one lytic transglycosylase, or six lytic transglycosylases showed higher levels of susceptibility to bacitracin, erythromycin, gallidermin, and vancomycin than the wild type. Mutant cells...
