Cell Wall Thickening Is Not a Universal Accompaniment of the Daptomycin Nonsusceptibility Phenotype in Staphylococcus aureus: Evidence for Multiple Resistance Mechanisms

The mechanism(s) of daptomycin (DAP) resistance (DAP(r)) is incompletely defined. Thickened cell walls (CWs) acting as either a mechanical barrier or an affinity trap for DAP have been purported to be a major contributor to the DAP(r) phenotype. To this end, we studied an isogenic set of methicillin...
