  • Title: Strain-related differences in lysozyme sensitivity and extent of O-acetylation of gonococcal peptidoglycan.
    Author: Rosenthal RS, Blundell JK, Perkins HR.
    Journal: Infect Immun; 1982 Aug; 37(2):826-9. PubMed ID: 6811442.
    Abstract:
    Peptidoglycan from Neisseria gonorrhoeae RD5 was completely degraded by hen egg white lysozyme and was not extensively O-acetylated. In contrast, peptidoglycans from gonococcal strains FA19 and FA102 (a penicillin-resistant mutant derived from FA19), were markedly resistant to digestion by hen egg white lysozyme and were extensively O-acetylated.
