Native valve infective endocarditis due to Micrococcus luteus in a non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma patient [PDF]
IDCases, 2019 Micrococcus species are typically considered contaminants from skin and mucous membranes. However, especially in severely immunocompromised patients, a blood culture with Micrococcus could be the cause of a significant infection.

Differentiation of Micrococcus luteus and Micrococcus varians on the Basis of Catalase Isoenzymes [PDF]
Journal of General Microbiology, 1976 Crude extracts prepared from four Micrococcus varians strains, 11 M. luteus strains and four laboratory isolates subsequently classified with M. luteus were assayed for catalase activity following electrophoresis on polyacrylamide gels. The enzyme patterns produced from the M. varians strains exhibited three catalase isoenzymes which were distinguished

Death of Micrococcus luteus in Soil [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1980 Micrococcus luteus cells died relatively quickly when they were added to natural soil. The results were similar for soil in nature and as soil samples in the laboratory. The cells died more quickly when nutrients were added to the soil.

Further characterization of the polynucleotide phosphorylase of Micrococcus luteus [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Research, 1975 The purification of polynucleotide phosphorylase from Micrococcus luteus by chromatography on phosphocellulose colums is described. This procedure offers several advantages over previous procedures. Previously determined molecular weights for Form-I enzyme and Form-T enzyme derived from Form-I by limited tryptic hydrolysis were confirmed as 2.7 and 2.3

Peptidoglycans synthesized by a membrane preparation of Micrococcus luteus [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1976 By incubation of cell-free particulate preparations from Micrococcus luteus with nucleotidic precursors uridine 5'-diphosphate-N-acetylglucosamine and uridine 5'-diphosphate-N-acetylmuramic acid-L-Ala-D-iso-Glu-L-Lys-D-Ala-D-Ala, several types of peptidoglycans were obtained: soluble peptidoglycan, insoluble peptidoglycan bound to the membrane and ...
