Isolation and characterization of autolysin-defective mutants of Staphylococcus aureus that form cell packets.

Current microbiology - 1 Jun 1997

Kaneda S

Abstract excerpt

Staphylococcus aureus produces multiple bacteriolytic enzymes (autolysins) and grows usually as a mixture of single cells, pairs, short chains, and irregular clusters. Autolysin-defective mutants that form cubic cell packets (Pa4A and PaH13) or grape-like clusters (Cu9S and CuD10) were isolated from S. aureus FDA 209P after mutagenesis with N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine. The Pa4A mutant grown in nutrient...
