There are two conflicting primary nucleotide sequences of the Staphylococcus aureus bacteriophage ϕ 11 amidase gene in Genbank. Nucleotide sequence differences as well as alternative translational start site assignments result in three non‐identical protein sequence predictions for this amidase. Therefore, it is prudent to verify the correct phi11 amidase protein sequence, especially since multiple versions of the amidase gene have been subcloned, deletion analysis performed, and their…

Multilocus PCR typing strategy for differentiation of Staphylococcus aureus siphoviruses reflecting their modular genome structure.
TLDR
A multiplex PCR strategy for the complex characterization of S. aureus phages of the family Siphoviridae and nine PCR assays designed for the above sequences were shown to be capable to identify the bacteriophage gene pool present both in the phage and bacterial genomes and their extensive mosaic structure.

The complete genomes and proteomes of 27 Staphylococcus aureus bacteriophages.
TLDR
Comparative nucleotide and protein sequence analysis indicates that these phages are a remarkable source of untapped genetic diversity, encoding 2,170 predicted protein-encoding ORFs, of which 1,402 cannot be annotated for structure or function.
The Staphylococcus aureus NCTC 8325 Genome
By focusing on the Staphylococcus aureus phage group III strain NCTC 8325, Pattee’s laboratory utilized transduction and transformation to identify a series of linkage groups that were organized into…

Multiple enzymatic activities of the murein hydrolase from staphylococcal phage phi11. Identification of a D-alanyl-glycine endopeptidase activity.
TLDR
Analysis of a deletion mutant lacking the amidase-homologous sequence, phi11(Delta181-381), revealed that the D-alanyl-glycyl endopeptidase activity is contained within the N-terminal 180 amino acid residues of the polypeptide chain.
Cloning and expression of a Staphylococcus aureus gene encoding a peptidoglycan hydrolase activity
TLDR
A gene of Staphylococcus aureus PS47 encoding lytic activity was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli and it was suggested that the gene was located within a 2.5-kbp EcoRI-XbaI fragment.
Eukaryotic signalling domain homologues in archaea and bacteria. Ancient ancestry and horizontal gene transfer.
TLDR
Comparisons of the domain distributions in eukaryotes and prokaryotes enabled distinctions to be made between the domains originating prior to the last common ancestor of all known life forms and those apparently originating as consequences of horizontal gene transfer events.
Amidase domains from bacterial and phage autolysins define a family of gamma-D,L-glutamate-specific amidohydrolases.
Staphylococcus aureus Mutants with Increased Lysostaphin Resistance
TLDR
Lysostaphin resistance of lyrA mutants is attributable to altered cell wall envelope properties and may in part be due to increased abundance of altered cross bridges, and bursa aurealis insertions in genes specifying GTP pyrophosphokinase or enzymes of the purine biosynthetic pathway are identified.
