Septic Shock With Micrococcus luteus
Archives of Internal Medicine, 1978Micrococcus luteus is considered a non-pathogenic saprophyte of human skin and eye. Disease in man caused by this organism is not recorded in medical literature. We present a case of septic shock cause by M luteus. The value of this report is to document the pathogenicity of coagulase-negative staphylococci in patients without valvular heart disease ...

Meningitis due to Micrococcus luteus
Infection, 1985We are presenting a new case of meningitis due to the Micrococcus luteus species. This germ was isolated twice in eight days from the CSF of a 57-year old woman. The patient had a ventriculoperitoneal shunt implanted for hydrocephalus following a meningeal haemorrhage. Antibiotic therapy was efficient but the patient died of a recurrent haemorrhage.

Unassigned or Nonsense Codons in Micrococcus luteus
Journal of Molecular Biology, 1993We previously reported that in Micrococcus luteus, a Gram-positive eubacterium with high genomic G + C content, certain codons ending with A did not appear in coding frames, including termination sites, and tRNAs that translate these codons were not detected. These facts suggest that at least some of them are unassigned (nonsense) codons, i.e.

Intracranial suppuration caused by Micrococcus luteus
British Journal of Neurosurgery, 1993Micrococcus spp. are commensal organisms colonizing the body surfaces of humans. In a few instances these organisms have been reported to colonize ventricular shunts. We report a patient, with no overt evidence of immunosuppression, in whom Micrococcus luteus was responsible for intracranial suppuration at multiple sites.

On resuscitation from the dormant state of Micrococcus luteus
Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, 1998It has been found previously that a significant number of Micrococcus luteus cells starved in a prolonged stationary phase (up to 2 months) and then held on the bench at room temperature without agitation for periods of up to a further 2-7 months can be resuscitated in liquid media which contained (statistically) no initially-viable (colony-forming ...

Structure of cell-wall glycopolymers of Micrococcus luteus C01
Carbohydrate Research, 2021Glycopolymers of two types were isolated from the cell wall of Micrococcus luteus C01 by stepwise extraction with cold and hot 10% aq CCl3CO2H. The following structures of the glycopolymers were established by compositional analysis and 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy: where L-Glu indicates glutamic acid.

Inhibition of diptheroid esterase by Micrococcus luteus
Canadian Journal of Microbiology, 1977Micrococcus luteus produced a diffusible, esterase inhibitory factor (EIF) which inhibited the activity of cutaneous diphtheroid esterases on Tween 80–CaCl2 agar media. Esterases of Staphylococcus, Micrococcus, Bacillus, and Serratia were not susceptible. EIF did not appear to combine with the substrate or to prevent enzyme synthesis; it was unable to

Lactofferrin binding to lysozyme-treated Micrococcus luteus
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 1982When the cell lysis of Micrococcus luteus by hen egg white or human lysozyme is performed in the presence of bovine or human lactoferrin, a temporary increase of the turbidity of the solution as followed at 450 nm is observed. Examination of the suspension under light microscopy has proven that the protoplasts produced upon lysozyme action are ...

Electrodiffusion of ethidium cation into Micrococcus luteus cells
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Biomembranes, 1994Ethidium bromide fluorescence increased in the presence of Micrococcus luteus cells; this was shown to be due to the interaction of the ethidium cation (Eth) with intracellular nucleic acids. Eth permeation across the cytoplasmic membrane was the rate-limiting step and obeyed first-order kinetics.

Mechanism of action of Micrococcus luteus .gamma.-endonuclease
Biochemistry, 1987Micrococcus luteus extracts contain gamma-endonuclease, a Mg2+-independent endonuclease that cleaves gamma-irradiated DNA. This enzyme has been purified approximately 1000-fold, and the purified enzyme was used to study its substrate specificity and mechanism of action. gamma-Endonuclease cleaves DNA containing either thymine glycols, urea residues, or
