Growth Arrest of Staphylococcus aureus Induces Daptomycin Tolerance via Cell Wall Remodelling
ABSTRACT Almost all bactericidal drugs require bacterial replication and/or metabolic activity for their killing activity. When these processes are inhibited by bacteriostatic antibiotics, bacterial killing is significantly reduced. One notable exception is the lipopeptide antibiotic daptomycin, whi...
