General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function introduction of single nucleotide polymorphism G206S into an isogenic highly resistant but slower growing strain reduces resistance and increases its growth rate, suggesting a direct connection between the dacA mutation and the phenotypic differences of these strains. The dacA mutation decreases cyclic di-AMP levels resulting in reduced autolysis, increased salt tolerance and a reduction in the basal expression of the cell wall stress stimulon Staphylococcus aureus
