Abstract
Whole-cell autolytic activity of prototypical glycopeptide-intermediate Staphylococcus aureus (GISA) Mu50 was reduced versus that of hetero-GISA Mu3 and glycopeptide-susceptible S. aureus, consistent with other GISA strains. In contrast, autolytic activity was relatively high in Mu50 crude cell walls and autolysin extracts against purified cell walls, reflecting the complexities of autolytic activity regulation.Entities:
