Abstract excerpt

We investigated the cell surface localization of the atl gene products of Staphylococcus aureus exposed to a lytic concentration (4 MIC) of penicillin G (PCG) by means of immunoelectron microscopy using anti-62-kDa N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanine amidase or anti-51-kDa endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase...
