MprF-Mediated Lysinylation of Phospholipids in Staphylococcus aureus Leads to Protection against Oxygen-Independent Neutrophil Killing

Staphylococcus aureus achieves resistance to defensins and similar cationic antimicrobial peptides (CAMPs) by modifying anionic membrane lipids via MprF with l-lysine, which leads to repulsion of these host defense molecules. S. aureus ΔmprF, which lacks the modification, was very efficiently killed...
