摘要:
The Staphylococcus aureus bacteriophage phi11 endolysin has two peptidoglycan hydrolase domains (endopeptidase and amidase) and an SH3b cell wall-binding domain. In turbidity reduction assays, the purified protein can lyse untreated staphylococcal mastitis pathogens, Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase-negative staphylococci (Staphylococcus chronogenes, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus hyicus, Staphylococcus simulans, Staphylococcus warneri and Staphylococcus xylosus), making it a strong candidate protein antimicrobial. This lytic activity is maintained at the pH (6.7), and the 'free' calcium concentration (3 mM) of milk. Truncated endolysin-derived proteins containing only the endopeptidase domain also lyse staphylococci in the absence of the SH3b-binding domain.
