DOI: 10.2174/0929866527666200613221359
Abstract: BACKGROUND Mature lysostaphin (28-kDa Lss) from Staphylococcus simulans proves effective in killing methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) which is endemic in hospitals worldwide. Lss is Zn2+-dependent endopeptidase, but its bacteriolytic activity could be affected by exogenously… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2022.849492
Abstract: A cyanophage PaV-LD, previously isolated from harmful filamentous cyanobacterium Planktothrix agardhii, was sequenced, and co-expression of its two ORFs in tandem, ORF123 and ORF124, inhibited growth on the model cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC6803 cells. However,… read more here.
