  • Title: [Dependence of the effectiveness of phage infection on energy status of staphylococcal cells].
    Author: Polishko TN, Vinnikov AI.
    Journal: Ukr Biokhim Zh (1999); 1999; 71(2):28-32. PubMed ID: 10609298.
    Abstract:
    Studies of phage infection efficiency in Staphylococcus aureus showed its dependence on the energy processes. Addition of KCN, dycyclohexylcarbodiimide and chlorocarbonylcyanide-phenylhydrazone at the moment of cells contact with bacteriophages lowered phagolysis efficiency to 49.5-68.0%. These inhibitors influenced on cell specifically leading to suppressing generators of protonmotive force and to dissipating membrane potential. Adding phages to the suspension of bacterial led to the dissipation of membrane potential.
