The novel bacteriocin romsacin from Staphylococcus haemolyticus inhibits Gram-positive WHO priority pathogens
ABSTRACT Staphylococcus haemolyticus is an increasingly relevant nosocomial pathogen. The combination of multi-drug resistance and ability to form biofilms makes S. haemolyticus infections difficult to treat. Bacteriocins are ribosomally synthesized antimicrobial peptides produced by bacteria to inh...
