IS256 mediated alteration of femAB expression in Staphylococcus epidermidis and its effect on lysostaphin resistance
Mechanisms responsible for the development of acquired resistance to lysostaphin, a glycylglycine endopeptidase, among isolates of Staphylococcus epidermidis were examined. Following overnight exposure to sub-inhibitory concentrations of lysostaphin, lysostaphin-resistant, oxacillin-susceptible muta...
