Influence of dTMP on the phenotypic appearance and intracellular persistence of Staphylococcus aureus.

Infection and immunity - 1 Apr 2008

Abstract excerpt

Thymidine-dependent small-colony variants (SCVs) of Staphylococcus aureus are frequently associated with persistent and recurrent infections in cystic fibrosis patients. The phenotypic appearance of S. aureus SCVs or normal-colony variants (NCVs) is postulated to be affected by the intracellular...
